초록
Relapse following rotational movement of the tooth is a common problem in orthodontic practice. To overcome such relapse, many procedures have been advocated: prolonged retention, permanent retention, over-rotation, rotation of teeth at an early age, surgical procedures such as gingivectomy, redressement force, septotomy, et cetra. A 23-year-old woman presented with Angle's Class I malocclusion and extreme rotation of maxillary central incisors. After 15 months' active therapy, septotomy was performed on maxillary central incisors and Howley retainer was applicated for the purpose of overcoming rotational relapse. During the 1 year post-operative observation, negligible, if any, rotational relapse occurred.
