RESUMEN
The aim of this case report is to present the treatment plan, progress, and retention difficulty of an adolescent with a skeletal Class II malocclusion and ectopic canine eruption using a Pendulum appliance and skeletal anchorage. The patient was diagnosed with benign hypermobile EDS towards the end of treatment. This patient went through frequent relapses in a short period, which should be considered while treating patients with similar condition. This report emphasizes that forces applied in patients with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome will accelerate tooth movement but the clinicians should be cautious enough to avoid potential periodontal breakdown due to disturbaces in collagen remodeling.
