Combined use of molar distalization and leeway space for class II division 1 malocclusion with odontoma-induced impacted maxillary right lateral incisor in the mixed dentition: a case report

Molar distalization and use of the leeway space can avoid the need for tooth extraction during orthodontic treatment. Molar distalization and use of the leeway space can provide sufficient space to correct Class II molar relationship, align impacted teeth, and retract the maxillary anterior teeth. Retraction of the maxillary anterior tooth and guidance for mandibular advancement can improve the lateral facial profile.
