Sažetak
Introduction: In this case report, we present a Class II malocclusion correction using only an Herbst appliance palatally anchored
with miniscrews.
Case presentation: 11.9-year-old female presented with the chief complaints of increased anterior upper teeth proclination; permanent
dentition with a Class II division I malocclusion; before sagittal correction with Herbst appliance, we applied a palatal screw to
obtain maxillary expansion. The device was removed after 12 months of treatment.
Conclusion: This clinical case showed a simple orthopedic and dentoalveolar approach using skeletal anchorage, which can effectively
correct a dental Class II malocclusion and frontal proclination of the upper incisors.
