Asymmetric Extraction

Bys: Singh, Meenakshi Rani, Singh, Dhananjay, Kumari, Shivangi

Asymmetric extraction therapy is an important orthodontic treatment approach used to correct unilateral crowding, midline discrepancies, subdivision malocclusions, and facial asymmetries. Unlike conventional symmetric extraction protocols, asymmetric extraction involves selective removal of teeth based on individual skeletal, dental, and soft tissue requirements. This book discusses the principles, diagnosis, biomechanics, treatment planning, and clinical applications of asymmetric extraction therapy. It highlights the role of cephalometric analysis, clinical examination, and modern imaging in identifying true dental and skeletal asymmetries. Various extraction patterns, anchorage control methods, and space closure mechanics are explained with emphasis on achieving functional occlusion, facial esthetics, and long-term stability. Clinical case reports and evidence-based approaches provide practical insight for students and orthodontists.
