Abstract
Our Objective was to treat a patient having proclined, protruded teeth along with a Class II Skeletal malocclusion. 0.022 × 0.028 inch MBT Brackets were placed, and leveling alignment was commenced. Individual canine retraction was carried out in both arches, followed by retraction of the incisors in the upper arch with a Burrstone's T Loop. E2Z Forsus fatigue resistance appliance was given for the correction of Class II malocclusion. Proclination, protrusion, and crowding were corrected along with Class II Skeletal base. Individual canine retraction along with frictionless mechanics and noncompliant functional correction has sufficient potential to prevent anchor loss and correct a Class II skeletal base.
