“…Recently, a study 8 using digital measurements in a sample of adolescents found that the maxillary second molars presented with a more accentuated distal angulation (−18.9°) and a lingual inclination of −10.6° with respect to that reported for young adults 5‐7 . The authors concluded that the finding of distal crown inclination, in contrast with Andrews observation of a mesial crown inclination, suggests that a revision in tip prescription for pre‐adjusted brackets might be considered.…”

The evaluation of the position of the maxillary permanent second molars has important clinical implications because these teeth may be responsible for premature contacts and occlusal interferences during function. Second molars may produce working, balancing and protrusive interferences and may hamper the attainment of anterior guidance during function. 1,2 When evaluating the treatment results of candidates for the American Board of Orthodontics, 3 the most common mistakes were
