Doctor's summary
1. High angle mandibular deviation, accompanied with right posterior scissors-bite. The patient was not willing to straighten the jaw, so control over the vertical direction was designed. 2. Four first premolars were extracted, with enhanced anchorase for posterior teeth. 3. First, TPA was used to correct the right scissors-bite, which took half a year. 4. Intruded posterior teeth, and increased positive torque of anterior teeth in design of invisible orthodontic treatment. 5. 2 anchorage nails were implanted at zygomatic alveolar ridge for high traction. The sagittal and vertical direction were controlled based on the principle of biomechanics. 6. Wore 40 sets of clear aligners. It took one year to enter the retention stage, and 1.5 years of total course of treatment. Stable joints, healthy dental periphery and opened airway were obtained after operation.
