This article discusses the orthodontic treatment of a girl, 9 years old, who presented with Class II malocclusion, bimaxillary rotrusion, anterior open bite, and congenital absence of the right lower premolar, in which a severe hypoplasia on right maxillary canine was nly noted after the extractions of the first maxillary premolars.
