Retraction with mini-screws tends to cause intrusion. (especially with vertical vector.) As can be seen in the case above, the posterior intrusion causes the mandibular counterclockwise rotation. This results in forward movement of the tip of the jaw and maximizes the aesthetic improvement of patients who tend to protrude. Dramatic changes can be observed in precision superimposition using Webceph. Has anyone experienced this when retraction with mini-screws?

Nice case! How many mini-screws used in this case?
Dr.Suki
Four mini-screws were used. Two for maxillary teeth, two for mandibular teeth. :)
