    Author: Baik UB, Kim MR, Yoon KH, Kook YA, Park JH.
    Journal: Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop; 2017 Mar; 151(3):572-582. PubMed ID: 28257742.
    Abstract:
    A 22-year-old woman came with a unilateral missing mandibular first molar and buccal crossbite. The open space was closed by protraction of the mandibular left second molar and uprighting and protraction of the horizontally impacted third molar using temporary skeletal anchorage devices, and her buccal crossbite was corrected with modified palatal and lingual appliances. The total active treatment time was 36 months. Posttreatment records after 9 months showed excellent results with a stable occlusion.
