This case report describes a complex Class III high-angle case in an adult patient treated with preadjusted lingual appliance and premolar extractions. With the twofold aim of obtaining aesthetic improvement and ideal occlusal relationship, accurate set-up planification and linear biomechanical strategies, including lower incisors torque control, are needed to achieve the planned results.
