Skeletal Class II malocclusion with mandibular deficiency is one of the most common problems that patients seek treatment. Adult patients with severe skeletal Class II malocclusion need orthognathic surgery for successful treatment. Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) is the most often preferred technique for these patients. This case report briefs about two male patient of age 24 years presented with Class II Skeletal relation, mesoprosopic facial form, horizontal growth pattern and Angle’s Class II div 1 malocclusion who were treated with Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO) mandibular advancement. The ideal anteroposterior relation was established along with a Class I molar, incisor, canine relationship and ideal overjet, overbite and the overall facial esthetics were significantly improved. Combined surgical-orthodontic treatment aims to obtain a more harmonious facial, skeletal, dental and soft tissue relationship with an added patient self esteem.
