Category 6 - Class II* Division 1 Malocclusion treated w/ extraction of permanent teeth

A malocclusion with a mandibular arch length discrepancy which requires bilateral extraction of permanent teeth in the mandibular arch. The case report should demonstrate the candidate's ability to manage extraction spaces as well as control anchorage and the vertical dimension.

*For the malocclusion to satisfy the Class II category requirement, the mesiobuccal cusp of the maxillary permanent first molar must occlude, at least on one side, in the embrasure between the mandibular second premolar and the mandibular permanent molar, or farther to the mesial. If the maxillary or mandibular permanent first molar is missing, the buccal cusp of the maxillary second premolar must occlude in the embrasure between the mandibular first and second premolars, or farther to the mesial.
