    Abstract:
    A Class II open bite malocclusion with a narrowed maxilla, an increased lower anterior facial height, and a tooth size discrepancy are presented. The malocclusion was treated nonextraction in 2 phases. The mixed dentition phase of treatment was maxillary molar uprighting followed by a bonded rapid palatal expander. The vertical dimension was managed with a vertical pull chincup. The full appliance phase included buildups of the maxillary lateral incisors and mechanics to control lower incisor position.
