Dento-maxillary disharmony is a disproportion between the size or mesiodistal diameter of teeth and the perimeter of the corresponding alveolar arches. This case report describes the orthodontic treatment of a 17-year-old female patient with a normo occlusal class I malocclusion with a persistent temporary tooth. The goals were to maintain skeletal profile and Class I, eliminate crowding and correct tooth axis to achieve a bilateral Class I canine and maintain a bilateral Class I molar relationship, as well as to achieve adequate overbite and overjet, correct the midline, and achieve good balance and occlusal function.
