Aim: Deepbite is one of the most common malocclusion seen in treatment of orthodontic cases. Aim of the present study was to compare the effects of intrusion of maxillary anterior teeth by two different methods in two groups by implants and intrusion utility arch respectively and if any side effects seen in the molars. Methods: 24 samples were taken and divided into two groups of 12 each. Implants were used in the first group and intrusion utility arch used in second group. Two conventional lateral cephalometric headfilms of the patients, one at beginning of treatment (T1) and other at end of treatment (T2), were obtained.16 landmarks were located and 13 measurements were made on the cephalometric tracings. Results: There was no statistical significance seen in intrusion of anterior maxillary teeth in between both groups. Side effect in intrusion utility arch group which was mesial movement of molar was statistically significant. There was no such side effect seen in implant group. Conclusions: There is no difference in intrusion of anterior teeth between intrusion utility arch and implants. The side effect seen in intrusion utility arch is mesial movement of maxillary first molar. There is no such effect in implant group
