RESUMEN
The case of treatment of a 32-year-old patient with complaints about the aesthetics of a smile and the absence of teeth 17 and 46 is presented. During the examination, it was established: the retraction position of the teeth in the frontal part of the upper jaw, the closure of the molars according to the II class of the second subclass of Engl (distal bite), the vestibular position of the teeth 13, 23. To change the spatial position of the lower jaw, the fixation of the bracket system on the upper jaw was performed. and also an individualized mini-plate was installed in the area of the zygomatic alveolar ridge on the right and left, for distalization of the dentition of the upper jaw with the help of orthodontic traction applied from the teeth to the mini-plates. This clinical example demonstrates the possibility of using individualized mini-plates for distalization of the upper dentition, as an alternative and more stable method of treatment in such clinical cases.
