Since extraction is an irreversible procedure and different extraction plans lead to varied treatment outcomes, designing an appropriate extraction plan is crucial. However, different practitioners may propose distinct extraction plans for the same case, and even the same practitioner may design different plans for similar cases. Recently, VTO digital tooth arrangement has gradually been incorporated into orthodontic diagnostics as an auxiliary tool. This paper presents a case of adult Class I malocclusion correction using digital tooth arrangement to select an extraction plan, aiming to evaluate its effectiveness as an auxiliary method in orthodontic treatment. The findings show that, following the extraction plan determined by digital tooth arrangement, the patient achieved satisfactory occlusal and profile outcomes, indicating that digital tooth arrangement has potential reference value in orthodontic treatment.展开更多
