Short root anomaly (SRA) is a rare familial dental condition that is often misdiagnosed. Orthodontic treatment of patients with SRA is challenging because it is difficult to diagnose, it may be accompanied by other dental anomalies, and it has been reported to contribute to additional susceptibility to root resorption during orthodontic treatment. In this article, we describe a methodical and evidence-based means of diagnosing and orthodontically managing a patient with SRA. The patient had additional challenges, including impacted and ectopic teeth. An individualized treatment plan that incorporated efficient and effective mechanics led to a well seated occlusion and an esthetic smile.
短根畸形（SRA）是一种罕见的家族性牙齿疾病，常被误诊。SRA 患者的正畸治疗具有挑战性，因为其难以诊断，可能伴有其他牙齿异常，并且有报道称其会增加正畸治疗中牙根吸收的易感性。本文介绍了一种系统的、基于证据的方法来诊断和正畸治疗 SRA 患者。该患者还存在其他挑战，包括埋伏牙和异位牙。个性化的治疗计划包括高效和有效的力学，最终实现了良好的咬合和美观的笑容。
