Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in smile morphometric indices following maxillary advancement and mandibular setback surgery in patients with skeletal class III malocclusion. Materials and Methods: Smile morphometric indices were measured on frontal rest and smile photographs of 15 female patients with skeletal Class III malocclusions before and three months after maxillary advancement and mandibular setback surgery. Pre- and post-surgery measurements were compared. Results: The amount of left and right commissural height, philtrum height, and maximum upper incisor show at rest did not change significantly three months after surgery (p>0.05). The amount of maximum upper and lower incisor show, interlabial gap, smile width and index, buccal corridor ratio, gingival display, and smile arc on the frontal smile photographs didn’t showstatistically significant difference before and after surgery (P>0.05). Conclusion: Orthognathic surgery in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion had no significant effect on rest and smile parameters from the frontal view.

ABSTRACT A 19-year-old female came to our department with the chief complaint of facial asymmetry. Clinical examination showed skeletal class III relationship with mandibular prognathism, large reverse overjet, lower right mild crowding, and left hemimandibular elongation. After a thorough discussion with the patient, she accepted the proposal of orthognathic surgery and mandibular setback by bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSRO), and therefore, tooth extraction was performed for 18, 28, 38, and 48 before the surgery. An improved superelastic Ti-Ni alloy wire (ISW wire), developed by Tokyo Medical and Dental University, was then used to facilitate the correction of lower crowding. Involved mechanism included intermaxillary elastics for a better interdigitation and jaw relationships. Adequate overbite and overjet were achieved after treatment completion.

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.
