In this brief monologue, Bill describes the orthodontic case of a patient named Glennine who sought a better smile. She presented with a notably narrow intermolar width of about 30 mm and wanted four teeth repositioned. Bill outlines the treatment plan: providing removable appliances that Glennine wore perfectly, followed by fixed braces. The clinic’s standard protocol involved angling the brackets to separate the roots, then rebracketing to continue the alignment process. Throughout, Bill emphasizes the patient’s high compliance and the systematic steps the clinic follows to achieve the desired outcome.

We Got her in the braces, did our usual thing, angled the brackets to get the roots apart. We get the roots apart, rebracket, do the whole thing, our little protocol.
