Angle emphasized that the preservation of all dental units was necessary to achieve facial balance, harmony and esthetics. The main goal of orthodontic treatment is to obtain a normal relationship of the teeth with facial structures. However, diagnosis knowledge and mechanics control are essential for treatment success. Cases finished with first permanent molars in Class II or III relationship in one or both sides seem not to cause esthetic or functional problems. The selected articles were case reports, original articles and prospective or retrospective case-control studies concerning asymmetrical extractions of permanent teeth for the treatment of malocclusions.ĬONCLUSION: According to the literature reviewed asymmetric extractions can make some specific treatment mechanics easier. METHODS: Keywords were selected in English and Portuguese and the EndNote 9 program was used for data base search in PubMed, Web of Science (WSc) and LILACS. OBJECTIVE: This article aims at reviewing the literature relating the advantages, disadvantages and clinical implications of asymmetric extractions to orthodontics. In addition to the extraction decision orthodontists have to choose what tooth should be extracted for the best solution of the problem and the esthetic/functional benefit of the patient. INTRODUCTION: Extraction decisions are extremely important in during treatment planning.
