Background and Overview. Lingual eruption of the permanent maxillary central incisors in the early mixed dentition can result in a traumatic anterior crossbite, causing mobility and gingival recession to the opposing mandibular incisors.Case Description. This case report presents a common finding of a 7-year-old boy with a dental crossbite and pseudo-Class III malocclusion caused by lingual eruption of the maxillary central incisors. An interceptive phase of orthodontic treatment was provided by bonding a beveled resin turbo on the mandibular incisors. The crossbite was corrected in 3 months without any orthodontic appliances. In the absence of the traumatic occlusion, the mandibular incisors stabilized and the gingival tissue was expected to regenerate.Conclusions and Practical Implications. Dentists and orthodontists can place beveled resin turbos on the mandibular incisors to jump an anterior dental crossbite conservatively, without the use of orthodontic brackets and wires.

Angle Class III malocclusion is characterized by anteroposterior dental discrepancy which might be associated or not with skeletal changes. Class III molar relationship is associated with vertical or lingually tipped mandibular incisors and a usually concave profile. These characteristics seriously affect facial esthetics and most frequently are the reason why patients seek orthodontic treatment. This case was presented to the committee of the Brazilian Board of Orthodontics and Facial Orthopedics (BBO) as part of the requisites to become a BBO Diplomate.

A 46-year-old male Caucasian with traumatically induced maxillary retrusion was referred for orthodontic treatment, eight weeks after the original fracture had occurred. Initial surgical reduction and fixation had been successful, when a second traumatic episode was encountered. This resulted in a further degree of posterior maxillary displacement, which was resistant to further surgical reduction. The resulting Class III malocclusion was treated using maxillary protraction headgear, in conjunction with removable orthodontic appliances and intermaxillary traction. Appliances were worn full time and inter-arch correction was achieved in six months. The resulting occlusion proved to be stable following the cessation of active treatment.

This research aimed to evaluate the effects of presurgical mandibular incisor decompensation on long-term outcomes of Class III surgical orthodontic treatment. Thirty-five patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion who received conventional surgical orthodontic treatment were included. Mandibular incisor brackets with −6° of inclination were placed normally in 18 patients (NB group) and inversely in 17 patients (RB group). Between-group differences and relationships between incisal and skeletal variables were analyzed based on lateral cephalograms at pretreatment, presurgery, postsurgery, posttreatment, and retention. Mandibular incisors were more labially inclined in the RB group than in the NB group from presurgery to retention. No significant between-group differences were observed in presurgical and postsurgical skeletal relationships. The NB group exhibited a larger overjet with deficient interincisal contact at postsurgery than the RB group. Skeletal Class III relationship was also more severe in the NB group at retention. More lingually inclined mandibular incisors at presurgery and larger overjet at postsurgery were correlated with a more severe skeletal Class III relationship at retention. Thus, establishing appropriate postsurgical overjet by sufficient presurgical mandibular incisor decompensation may play a significant role in postsurgical stability of Class III surgical orthodontic treatment.

Introduction: Class III malocclusion has skeletal and dental components that can often impair the patient's facial appearance. Its treatment may involve orthognathic surgery or compensatory orthodontics. Case report: This case report presents a Class III malocclusion compensatory orthodontic treatment performed with the Biofunctional prescription brackets. Biofunctional prescription presents a torque value of 0° for the maxillary incisors and +10° for the mandibular incisors, which counteracts to the side effects of the use of Class III intermaxillary elastics, minimizing it, providing a more stable, aesthetic and with a healthier periodontal occlusion. Conclusion: The Class III malocclusion compensatory orthodontic treatment performed with Biofunctional prescription obtains satisfactory results, even depending on the patient collaboration with the use of intermaxillary elastics.

It is very difficult to diagnose and treat Class III malocclusion. This type of malocclusion involves a number of cranial base and maxillary and mandibular skeletal and dental compensation components. In Class III malocclusion originating from mandibular prognathism, orthodontic treatment in growing patients is not a good choice and in most cases orthognathic surgery is recommended after the end of growth. Approximately 30–40% of Class III patients exhibit some degree of maxillary deficiency; therefore, devices can be used for maxillary protraction for orthodontic treatment in early mixed dentition. In cases in which dental components are primarily responsible for Class III malocclusion, early therapeutic intervention is recommended. An electronic search was conducted using the Medline database (Entrez PubMed), the Cochrane Collaboration Oral Health Group Database of Clinical Trials, Science Direct, and Scopus. In this review article, we described the treatment options for Class III malocclusion in growing patient with an emphasis on maxillary protraction. It seems that the most important factor for treatment of Class III malocclusion in growing patient is case selection.

Molar Extraction

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.

Objective: To determine prevalence of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment needs in Down syndrome individuals among Sudanese population in Khartoum area.Materials & Method: A total of 75 (37 males and 38 females) Down syndrome individuals age ranging from 6-28 years were clinically examined after obtaining their guardian’s consent, malocclusion was determined based on Angle and Incisor classification. Exclusion criteria were included individuals who had history of extraction and orthodontic treatment.Data was analysed by using SPSS Version 17, at an alpha level 0.05 and 95% confidence limits.Result: Angle Class III and Incisor III malocclusion represents the most prevalent type of malocclusions (58.7%) Angle classification, (53.3%) Incisors classification. Angle Class III malocclusion was more frequent among females (60.5%) than in males (56.8%). Themajority of individuals with Down syndrome are in need of orthodontic treatment (85.3%).Conclusion: The prevalence of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment need among Sudanese Down syndrome individuals was high. Angle and Incisor Class III malocclusion representing commonest trait of malocclusion with more frequency in femalesthan males.Key word: down syndrome, Class III malocclusion, orthodontic treatment
