  • Title: Treatment of a Class I malocclusion with a carious mandibular incisor and no Bolton discrepancy.
    Author: Kokich VO.
    Journal: Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop; 2000 Jul; 118(1):107-13. PubMed ID: 10893480.
    Abstract:
    Occasionally orthodontists must plan treatment for a patient with extensive caries or a traumatic injury to one mandibular incisor. If the patient has a Bolton discrepancy, one treatment option could involve extraction of the affected mandibular incisor. However, if the patient does not have a Bolton discrepancy and a mandibular incisor is extracted, the treatment becomes more complicated. This case report will present and discuss the ramifications of extracting one mandibular incisor in a patient without an anterior tooth-size discrepancy. The CDABO Student Case Selection Committee chose this case for publication.
