ABSTRACT This article described the use of Carrière Distalizer Appliance as a method for Class II correction. A 23 year old female patient had a convex profile, a Class II malocclusion due to retrusive mandible, increased 6 mm overjet, and 3 mm overbite, normal growth pattern, normal mandibular plane, permanent dentition, moderate crowding in upper and lower dental arches and Class II molar and canine relationship bilaterally. Treatment was started with the extraction of upper wisdoms. Bonding of Carrière Distalizer Appliance for distalization of the upper molars, lower molar bands were cemented on lower first band for attachement of class II elastics and lower Essix appliance for mandibular anchorage. The cephalometric superimposition of pre- and post-distalization used to evaluate the treatment effects of Carrière Distalizer Appliance. This report demonstrated that the Carrière Distalizer Appliance was effective in treatment of Class II adult patient and within 9 months Class I molar and canine relationship was achieved.
