Abstract
Orthodontic management of a lingually blocked‑out lower premolar requires a substantial amount of bodily movement which is difficult to perform because of its position of crown and root. Uprighting of premolar using lingual arches as source of anchorage unit and piggy back wire create discomfort to patient and increased work load of orthodontist as well as the cost of the treatment. So it was necessary to design a new mechanics to solve all the problems and make treatment easy, efficient as well as quick.
