Abstract : [Abstract] Space deficiency in a crowded dentition is a main indication for premolar extraction therapy. Class I malocclusions with severe crowding in growing patients can be treated by upper second and lower third molar extraction using an edgewise technique with multiloop edgewise archwire (MEAW). The following case report describes a patient with severe tooth crowding, where the result of the treatment was acceptable and relatively stable. It was concluded that the elimination of posterior discrepancy by the extraction of posterior molars provides a progression in the treatment of crowding malocclusions.
