The Herbst appliance (HA) is considered an efficient method to treat class II malocclusion characterized by mandibular retrusion. Nevertheless, HA is although hampered by side effects reducing its therapeutic potentialities. The association between HA and TADs in the lower arch has proved to be very effective in controlling lower incisor flaring. This case report shows that the insertion of TADs in both arches offers a satisfactory control of the vertical dimension, by avoiding a maxillary clockwise inclination.
