Long-term follow-up of a patient with deepbite and severely resorbed maxillary central incisors treated by maxillary premolar and mandibular incisor extraction

Deepbite is a common type of malocclusion, but it leads to difficulties in treatment and retention. We report the treatment of an adult patient with deepbite and severe crowding of teeth. Several teeth had to be restored, and the maxillary central incisors had short roots. Various treatment plans were considered, and extraction of the maxillary right and left first premolars, and mandibular right central incisor was planned. Successful treatment results were obtained with long-term retention.
