The following records are those of a 12-year-old girl. She had no crowding and a Class I malocclusion with overjet. She was treated non-extraction. Although an acceptable occlusion was achieved for this patient, upon closer examination one can see that her face got longer, her mandible rotated down and back, and her smile got gummier. These unfavorable sequellae were the result of lack of vertical control. The cephalometric analysis shows an FMA of 35˚, ANB of 7˚, FMIA of 48˚, and a facial height index of 50. One should have been able to instantly know what would happen if the patient was treated non-extraction. Although an acceptable occlusion was achieved, facial balance was worsened. The molars erupted. There was extrusion of incisors and clockwise mandibular rotation. 9
First Wire Inserted First Wire Tied in with Resultant Forces Molar Eruption, Incisor Flaring, and OP Cant Once the first archwire is inserted into the appliance without proper vertical control, the molars will erupt. This happened to the patient whose records were previously shown. Orthodontists should make the teeth fit the face, not the face fit the teeth. 10
