Treatment of class II malocclusion requires accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. This case report outlines the successful management of a growing skeletal class II using Forsus fatigue resistant device for correction of skeletal parameters and premolar extractions for correction of dental parameters. The patient’s profile improved significantly with a 4° reduction in ANB angle. An ideal overjet, overbite and molar relation were also attained.

Pendahuluan: Maloklusi kelas II skeletal disertai crowding yang parah dapat menambah kompleksitas perawatan ortodontik. Umumnya dibutuhkan pencabutan gigi premolar sehingga dibutuhkan upaya untuk mempertahankan ruangan yang telah diperoleh karena kebutuhan ruangan yang cukup besar. Tujuan penulisan laporan kasus ini adalah menjelaskan perawatan ortodontik kasus maloklusi kelas II skeletal disertai crowding yang parah dengan penjangkaran trans palatal arch (TPA). Laporan kasus: Pasien laki-laki 34 tahun datang ke klinik Ortodonti RSGM FKG UI dengan keluhan gigi berjejal. Hasil diagnosis memperlihatkan adanya maloklusi kelas II skeletal disertai dengan crowding yang parah pada lengkung gigi atas dan bawah, serta profil muka cembung. Kasus ini dirawat dengan pencabutan gigi premolar pertama di rahang atas maupun bawah di kedua sisi menggunakan peranti ortodontik cekat sistem breket pre-adjusted edgewise MBT, dan ditambahkan TPA di rahang atas. Hasil perawatan menunjukkan crowding pada lengkung gigi atas dan bawah terkoreksi setelah 20 bulan perawatan. Simpulan: Penatalaksanaan maloklusi kelas II yang kompleks memerlukan pertimbangan dan perencanaan yang seksama terutama dalam hal penjangkaran. Perawatan ortodontik konvensional menggunakan penjangkaran tambahan berupa TPA terbukti efektif dalam mengoreksi crowding yang parah, mengubah hubungan molar dan kaninus menjadi kelas I, serta memperoleh oklusi yang baik secara merata di regio atas dan bawah di kedua sisi.Kata kunci: Trans palatal arch, crowding, maloklusi kelas II skeletal. ABSTRACTIntroduction: Skeletal class II malocclusion with severe crowding may contribute to the complexity level of orthodontic treatment. During the treatment with premolar extraction, space created needs to be maintained due to the more substantial space requirement. The purpose of this case report was to determine the orthodontic treatment of class II malocclusion with severe crowding using a trans palatal arch (TPA) to reinforce the anchorage. Case report: A 34-year man came to Orthodontic Clinics of the Faculty of Dentistry University of Indonesia Dental Hospital with a chief complaint of dental crowding. Diagnosis result showed the skeletal class II malocclusion along with severe maxillary and mandibular crowding and a convex face profile. Treatment with four first premolar extraction was performed with a pre-adjusted edgewise MBT system with TPA in the upper arch. The treatment results showed that severe crowding was corrected after 20 months of treatment. Conclusion: Due to the complexity of class II malocclusion, arrangement and implementation of this case need proper consideration and strategic planning, especially regarding anchorage control. Conventional orthodontic treatment using TPA is proven to be effective to eliminate severe crowding, obtain bilateral class I canine and molar relationship, and to achieve a right balance and occlusal function in the upper and lower regions of both sides.Keywords: Trans palatal arch, dental crowding, skeletal class II malocclusion.

Analysis of sagittal jaw relationship is important in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, and can be investigated by angular or linear parameters. In the present study an analysis was performed using profile cephalograms of 40 children with skeletal Class II malocclusion. A correlation analysis is presented, involving five different methods of expressing sagittal jaw relationships. Whilst some degree of agreement could be noted, it was not possible to suggest a pair of measurements, which in combination, could give a more accurate picture of sagittal jaw relationships.

ABSTRACT Objectives: To evaluate the use of direct miniplate anchorage in conjunction with the Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device (FFRD) in treatment of skeletal Class II malocclusion. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight females with skeletal Class II were randomly allocated to the Forsus plus miniplates (FMP) group (16 patients, age 12.5 ± 0.9 years), Forsus alone (FFRD; 16 patients, age 12.1 ± 0.9 years), or the untreated control group (16 subjects, age 12.1 ± 0.9 years). After leveling and alignment, miniplates were inserted in the mandibular symphysis in the FMP group. The FFRD was inserted directly on the miniplates in the FMP group and onto the mandibular archwires in the FFRD group. The appliances were removed after reaching an edge-to-edge incisor relationship. Results: Data from 46 subjects were analyzed. The effective mandibular length significantly increased in the FMP group only (4.05 ± 0.78). The mandibular incisors showed a significant proclination in the FFRD group (9.17 ± 2.42) and a nonsignificant retroclination in the FMP group (−1.49 ± 4.70). The failure rate of the miniplates was reported to be 13.3%. Conclusions: The use of miniplates with the FFRD was successful in increasing the effective mandibular length in Class II malocclusion subjects in the short term. The miniplate-anchored FFRD eliminated the unfavorable mandibular incisor proclination in contrast to the conventional FFRD.

The prevalence of skeletal Class II malocclusion is high amongst Asian population. Various treatment modalities have been presented for the treatment of Class II malocclusions in adult patients. We come across many adult patients who desire a costeffective and non-surgical correction and they accept dental camouflage as a treatment option to mask skeletal discrepancy. This case report presents a 26-year-old non-growing female who had a skeletal Class II malocclusion with prognathic maxilla and retrognathic mandible with an overjet of 7 mm, severe crowding, but did not want surgical treatment. We considered the camouflage treatment by extracting upper first premolars. Following the treatment, a satisfactory result was achieved with an acceptable static and functional occlusion, facial profile, smile and lip competence with patient satisfaction.

Abstract This case report describes the treatment of a case involving a skeletal Class II facial profile with a gummy smile. While treating a facial profile and a gummy smile, the outcome may not always be successful with orthodontic therapy alone. For this reason, surgical therapy is often chosen to gain an esthetic facial profile and a good smile. However, sometimes the patients reject surgical treatment and an alternative method must be considered. Skeletal anchorage systems such as miniscrews are now frequently used for correcting severe malocclusion that should be treated by surgical therapy. In this case report, we treated a skeletal Class II malocclusion with a convex profile and a gummy smile using miniscrews, which were placed in the upper posterior and anterior areas. The active treatment period was 3.5 years, and the patient's teeth continued to be stable after a retention period of 36 months.

Class II malocclusion in pubertal phase presents a major and a common challenge to orthodontists. Proper diagnosis and treatment planning in early stage help in preventing and intercepting the severity of malocclusion. In pubertal phase skeletal Class II malocclusion due to mandibular retrusion are best treated with functional appliance. In recent time PowerScope fixed functional appliance is gaining immense popularity as noncompliant Class II corrector. In the present case report an adolescent male patient having Class II division 1 malocclusion with functional jaw retrusion was treated using MBT 0.022” prescription and PowerScope appliance. 7-8 months of PowerScope wear obtained stable and successful results with improvement in facial profile, skeletal jaw relationship and mild increase in IMPA. It can thus be concluded that PowerScope gives good results in Class II correction with a combination of patient comfort and ease of use that was unmatched among other appliances
