| Summary: | This article reports the successful use of Infrazygomatic crest and buccal shelf implants in the maxilla and mandible to treat a female patient of age 13‐years. The patient had a skeletal Class I pattern and Angles class I malocclusion. Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in the posterior dental region between maxillary and mandibular second premolar and first molar teeth on both sides were used as anchorage for full arch distalization. The patient received a satisfactory occlusion and an attractive smile. This technique requires minimal compliance and is particularly useful for correcting bimaxillary protrusion cases.
