Resumo: The present study aimed to assess the mesiodistal angle, upper first and second molars distalization and the space for upper third molars in patients treated with Forsus® associated to fixed appliance. Sample consisted of 44 lateral cephalograms (22 right side, and 22 left side) obtained from 11 Cone-Bean Computed Tomography (CBCT) of 11 patients, in two phases: before (T1) and after (T2) the Forsus®. appliance. After obtaining the lateral cephalograms, points, lines and planes were marked, to measure the variables of interest. For evaluation of the space for upper third molars, it was used a reference line (PTVR), from point PTV, perpendicular to Frankfurt plane, measuring the distance until the distal face of first and second upper molars. To evaluate the long axis of upper first and second molars, it was measured the angle formed between such teeth and the palatal plane. The software used was Radiocef Studio 2 and for statistical analysis it was used paired "t" test. Results showed there was distalization and distal tipping of upper first and second molars, with a greater magnitude in first molars. Alterations in right and left sides were similar. It was also noticed that there was a reduction in the probability of eruption of third molars.
