MH Setup Technique, A Manually Customized Bracket-Setup, applied in Fully-treated Class II molar-relationship case

Abstract

The case published in this paper provides a clinical explanation for the importance of MH setup. The casts were cut and teeth were set into wax rims using brackets fit on full engagement archwires. Then another set of brackets was set over the teeth after the necessary adjustments with another full engagement archwires using composite as custom-made bases. The final brackets were transferred to the patient using vacuum-formed indirect transfer trays and the treatment was commenced. The final results were ideal with a total treatment time of one year in an extraction case. The finishing phase was only one month with settling elastics without the need for any brackets modifications despite the class II full unit molar relationship.
