Overeruption of mandibular molars due to the loss of antagonist teeth causes occlusal functional disturbances. To restore proper occlusion, intrusion of the overerupted molars becomes essential before multidisciplinary reconstructive dental approaches can be initiated. In this case report, a minimally invasive, noncompliant clinical procedure for maxillary molar intrusion using two orthodontic miniscrews is discussed in a patient who require molar intrusion for prosthetic purpose in lower posterior region.
