摘要：

This report presents a case of a 16-year-old female patient with skeletal class II and dental class II division I malocclusion that was treated with fixed orthodontic appliances and through growth modulation. Two appliances were used: a Hyrax expander and a high-pull headgear with extraction. The treatment objectives of achieving a class I molar and canine relationship, resolving the crowding in the upper and lower arches, correcting the midline shift, and improving the patient's facial profile and lip position were achieved, resulting in a good occlusion with normal overbite and overjet.
