Abstract
This case report highlights the effective and efficient usage of fixed functional appliance in the management of class II div 1 malocclusion with retrognathic mandible and deep overbite in an adult individual. Orthognathic surgery and Orthodontic camouflage with premolar extraction were not considered in the present case. The Mandibular Protraction Appliance (MPA type 2) was considered due to ease of fabrication, placing it simultaneously along with fixed mechanotherapy.
