  • Vertical dimension is usually decreased in
    comparison with Class II division 1
  • Dental crowding is created by retroclination
    of the maxillary central incisors

Q

Among the different removable appliances, Twin‐block is used more often,
which can efficiently (3)

promote mandibular growth, restrict further forward
growth of the maxilla, and improve skeletal relationships in growing
skeletal class II individuals with mandibular retrusion.

Late Management
Class II malocclusions
* In contrast to growing patients, limited range of treatment
modalities can be used for adult cases with class II skeletal and
dental malocclusions.
* Depending on the severity of malocclusion:
(2)

A
  • Class II elastics, compensatory extractions.
  • maxillary premolars and/or mandibular premolars
24
Q
  • — surgical modalities may be used to alleviate the
    functional and esthetic problems associated with this type of
    malocclusion.
A

Orthognathic

25
Q

Orthognathic surgery:

A

Mandibular advancement with or without maxillary impaction (
Class II openbite)

26
Q
  • The proper — orthodontic tooth movements and
    —- are essential to maximize the amount of
    discrepancy correction during surgery.
  • Although orthognathic surgery could be an efficient treatment
    modality in severe class II patients, both the — of the surgery and
    the — of undergoing surgery normally prevent patients from
    choosing this treatment option.

Etiology of Class III
* The etiology is associated with environmental and genetic
factors.
* The etiological factors of this malocclusion have been
classified into two groups:
(2)

A
  1. Skeletal.
  2. Dental.
36
Q
  1. Skeletal.
A
  • Hypoplastic maxilla. Hyperplastic mandible. Combination
37
Q
  1. Dental.
A
  • Anterior crossbite of functional origin
38
Q

Functional Class III
* Pseudo-Class III characterized by:

A
  • Anterior crossbite
  • CR-CO Shift
  • Not a true Class III malocclusion if corrected early
39
Q

Anterior crossbite
* Due to a

A

forward functional displacement of the mandible

40
Q

Functional Class III
Treatment
* In most cases, — is the main
etiological factor of a pseudo-Class III malocclusion.
* Correction of the anterior crossbite must be carried out as
soon as it is detected to increase the orthopedic effects,
thereby increasing the long-term stability of the treatment
results.

A

retroclined maxillary incisors

41
Q

Manipulate the condyles in their physiologic rest position.
If the occlusion is end to end it is probable that the crossbite is

Q

Maxillary Expansion-Protraction face mask
Goals:

A

Expand upper jaw to accommodate the lower dentition .
Apply traction to the maxilla to reposition it more anteriorly.
Slow down growth of mandible

Late Management
Class III malocclusions
* The principles involved in the comprehensive treatment of Class III
dentoalveolar malocclusions are:
(4)

A
  • Relief of crowding
  • Level and align arches
  • Increase overbite and overjet
  • Compensation by over proclination of upper incisors and retroclination
    of lower incisors

Late Management
Class III malocclusions
* In cases with moderate or severe Class III anteroposterior skeletal
discrepancies, a combination of (2) at the completion of skeletal growth (earlier in females than
males) will be required to create an acceptable and stable Class I
occlusion.

maxillary and mandibular arches, in order that they will co-
ordinate when their respective skeletal bases have been surgically
repositioned. (Decompensation)

is often required — surgery to finish and detail the occlusion.
