ZusammenfassungDer vorliegende Fallbericht zeigt die Therapie und das Behandlungsergebnis bei einer erwachsenen Patientin mit skelettaler Klasse-III-Dysgnathie. Die 29 Jahre alte Patientin wies eine skelettale Klasse III mit hypoplastischer Maxilla und prognather Mandibula, ein vertikales maxilläres Defizit und einen offenen Biss auf. Aufgrund vorhergehender Behandlungen mit unbefriedigenden Ergebnissen, der skelettalen Diskrepanz und hoher ästhetischer und kaufunktioneller Ansprüche der Patientin wurde eine interdisziplinäre Behandlung durchgeführt, welche Kieferorthopädie, orthognathe Chirurgie und restaurative Arbeiten einschloss.This article shows therapy and treatment result of an adult patient with skeletal Class III malocclusion. The patient of 29 years of age showed a skeletal class III malocclusion due to a hypoplastic maxilla and a prognathic mandible, a vertical maxillary deficit and an open bite. As there had been other treatments before with unsatisfying results and due to the skeletal discrepancy and the high esthetic and functional expectations of the patient, an interdisciplinary treatment involving orthodontics, orthognathic surgery and a restorative rehabilitation was chosen.

A skeletal Class III malocclusion with open bite tendency is considered very difficult to treat orthodontically without surgery. This case report describes the lingual orthodontic treatment of an adult skeletal Class III patient with mandibular deviation to the left side, lateral open bite, unilateral posterior crossbite, zero overbite and negative overjet. The lower incisors were already retroclined to compensate with the skeletal discrepancy. The patient was treated by asymmetric molar extraction in the mandibular arch to retract the lower incisors and correct the dental midline, with the help of intermaxillary elastics. Lingual appliance was used with over-torqued lower anterior teeth’s brackets to control the torque of mandibular incisors. After a 30-month treatment, satisfactory smile and facial esthetics and good occlusion was achieved. A 12-month follow-up confirmed that the outcome was stable. Asymmetric molar extraction could be a viable option to retract mandibular incisors in Class III malocclusion with lower dental midline deviation.

The Alt-RAMEC protocol was introduced by Liou in the year 2005. It allows for sutural mobilisation by opening and closing the RME screw for 7-9 weeks. Maxillary protraction after the use of Alt-Ramec (alternate rapid maxillary expansion and contraction) protocol is an efficient method for early treatment of skeletal Class III malocclusion. This case report shows the results of using a hyrax bonded maxillary expander with the Alt-RAMEC protocol to treat a maxillary hypoplasia Class III malocclusion. A 12-year-old patient with skeletal class III malocclusion with anterior as well as the unilateral posterior crossbite was treated using this protocol. CBCT scans were taken before and after expansion. These CBCT scans were used for assessing and analysing the skeletal changes that have occurred after using the AltRamec protocol. The objective of this case report is to assess skeletal changes after using the Alt-RAMEC protocol.

VG, 25-year-old male, presented with c/c of forwardly placed lower jaw and history of unsatisfactory previous orthodontic treatment. Extraorally, the patient had asymmetrical face and concave profile, competent lips, positive lip step, and chin deviated toward left side by 2 mm. Intraorally, the patient had Angle’s class III type 3 malocclusion with an overjet of (–1) mm, overbite of 0%, and cross-bite wrt 12, 21. The patient was skeletal class III due to macrognathic and prognathic mandible with hypodivergent growth pattern, and proclined upper and retroclined lower incisors. The patient was managed orthosurgically with bimaxillary surgery (maxillary advancement 3 mm + mandibular setback 7 mm) after presurgical decompensation. The case report discusses in detail the diagnosis and comprehensive management of the skeletal class III case.

Abstract Deliberate hypotension is an important technique for use in select anesthetics for procedures such as orthognathic surgery, specifically LeFort I maxillary osteotomy. We present a case report of an anesthetic involving deliberate hypotension for a 17-year-old female patient who presented for a LeFort I osteotomy, bilateral sagittal split of the mandible, and a genioplasty in order to correct a skeletal class III malocclusion. After reaching a steady-state general anesthetic, deliberate hypotension was induced solely with a bolus and subsequent continuous infusion of the ultrashort acting calcium channel blocker, clevidipine. The preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative course and anesthetic management are discussed.
