Abstract
Summary of the Case: Crowding of the anterior mandibular teeth often leads to a poor prognosis for root canal treatment and restoration of the anterior maxillary teeth. The patient was a 38-year-old female who presented with discomfort at the root of the upper anterior teeth and occasional pain in the right temporomandibular joint during mouth opening. Additionally, a silver crown on the lower left second molar (#37) had been removed. In this case, orthodontic treatment was performed to improve the mandibular position, the occlusal relationship between the upper and lower jaws, and the alignment of the teeth. The mandibular position was verified using axiographic analysis, and a final prosthesis was subsequently installed.
