Objective: the aim of this case report was to show the effectiveness of the treatment of Anterior Dental Crossbite (ADC) with the fixed inclined plane. One of the main criteria for the indication of its use is the tooth should not be fully inclined, and when well indicated it presents excellent results. Case Report: a patient presenting ADC of tooth 11, made use of Fixed Inclined Plans (FIP) with every two-week follow-up and after 30 days the success of ADC correction was achieved in a relatively fast time. After 2-year follow-up, the treatment stability was verified. This option of treatment presents relatively fast results, appropriate to the patient’s development phase, due to the absence of the need for cooperation, as well as with low cost, since it is a single dental element. Conclusion: early diagnosis associated with correct planning ensured successful treatment. Thirty days after the use of the device, the correction of the crossbite was already visible
