    Author: Curiel P, Santoro M.
    Journal: Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop; 2002 Dec; 122(6):661-5. PubMed ID: 12490879.
    Abstract:
    This case report describes the management of maxillary and mandibular crowding in a patient with facial esthetic concerns and a tooth-size discrepancy due to a missing mandibular central incisor. The treatment included extracting the remaining mandibular central incisor and the 2 maxillary first premolars. The mandibular canines were repositioned to substitute for lateral incisors, and the mandibular premolars were used as canines.
