  • Title: The British Orthodontic Society MOrth Cases Prize 2019.
    Author: Jowett AC.
    Journal: J Orthod; 2021 Jun; 48(2):144-155. PubMed ID: 33427004.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the orthodontic treatment of two cases that were successful in winning the British Orthodontic Society (BOS) Membership in Orthodontics (MOrth) Cases Prize in 2019. The first case describes the management of a 12-year-old girl with a Class II division 2 malocclusion complicated by moderate upper and lower arch crowding, multiple unerupted teeth, restored lower first permanent molars, pseudo-transposition of the lower left lateral incisor and canine, and diminutive upper lateral incisors. Treatment involved a combination of an upper removable appliance followed by upper and lower preadjusted edgewise fixed appliances. Anteroposterior correction and overbite reduction was achieved with triangular Class II elastics with posterior occlusal disengagement. Both upper permanent canines were exposed and aligned, and the diminutive upper incisors built up with resin-based composite. Treatment was completed over a period of 23 months. The second case describes the management of a 13-year-old boy with a Class II division 2 malocclusion complicated by severe upper and lower arch crowding with unerupted UR5, UL4, LR3, rotated LR5, an increased overbite complete to tooth, buccally displaced upper canines and hypoplastic upper first premolars. Treatment involved a first phase of functional appliance therapy, followed by the extraction of UR4, UL4, LL5, LR4 and upper and lower preadjusted edgewise fixed appliances over a 28-month period.
