Abstract
Over-erupted upper second molars are often encountered in adult patients because of the loss of contralateral tooth. This article illustrates a technique for second-molar intrusion with a bilateral intrusion arm. An over-erupted right second molar was intruded within 6 weeks by this segmental technique.
