Abstract :
This case report presents a patient who is undergoing orthodontic treatment with upper and lower fixed appliance. An interesting
point on this case is that the patient only uses Miswak as her oral hygiene tool due to her religious belief. The oral hygiene protocol
was allowed and her oral health was closely monitored throughout her orthodontic treatment.
