<p>This case report describes the treatment of a 12-years-old female with a Class III skeletal profile and dental malocclusion. The clinical examination showed concave profile, class III dental relationship, buccal crossbite on the right side, and mild crowding. The cervical vertebral maturation analysis showed the patient was on the CS3 stage. The class III malocclusion was treated with combination of banded rapid palatal expander and face mask followed by non-extraction orthodontic treatment with self-ligating system. Banded rapid palatal expander and face mask were used to improve the skeletal discrepancy. Class I maxilla-mandibular relationship was achieved along with class I molar, incisor, and canine relationship. The buccal crossbite and mild crowding were corrected, the overbite and overjet were normal, and the facial profile was improved. This case demonstrates a good result of a class III malocclusion treatment in an adolescent patient with banded rapid palatal expander/face mask and self-ligating system.</p>

This is the second article in a series on conundrums in orthodontics. A Class I molar relationship is a frequent aim of orthodontic treatment. There are, however, examples where intentionally finishing to a Class III molar relationship is the more pragmatic and preferable option. Pursuing this approach in the appropriate circumstances may, for example, prevent deleterious consequences to the facial profile or avoid the need for further dental extractions. This article explores the indications for finishing cases to a Class III molar relationship with illustrated clinical cases. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Dogmatic attempts to deliver Class I molar relationships, in all cases, without consideration of the consequences, have the potential to cause the patient harm. The orthodontist must then consider all possible options available, including those resulting in a Class III molar relationship.

Introduction: Palatal rugae used for the evaluation of dental movements and as a landmark in the superimposition of dental cast for orthodontic purpose as it is a stable point. So, the aims and objectives of our study is to investigate the association of morphological characteristics of palatal rugae with dental malocclusion in Himachali population. Materials and methods: 90 subjects divided into three groups (n=30 each) on the basis of Angle’s classification. Palatal rugae were marked on dental casts and evaluated for length, pattern and orientation. Obtained measurements were then statistically analysed. Conclusion: Primary palatal rugae’s length was found more in Class II followed by Class III and Class I malocclusion. Among the pattern of the primary palatal rugae, curved pattern were more evident on both right and left sides of all malocclusion groups. Horizontal directed orientation is more predominant on the right side and posteriorly directed on the left side of the first primary palatine rugae. Keywords: Rugae, Malocclusion, orientation pattern, length, morphology.

SummaryObjectivesThe objective of this study was to analyze soft tissue changes produced by rapid maxillary expansion and facial mask therapy in growing Class III patients.MaterialsThe treated group consisted of 32 Caucasian patients (15 females and 17 males) with dentoskeletal Class III malocclusion treated with the Face Mask Protocol (FMP, rapid maxillary expander, facial mask, and removable lower bite-block). All patients were evaluated before treatment (T1; mean age, 8.4 years), at the end of active treatment (T2; mean age, 10.7 years), and at a post-pubertal follow-up observation (T3; mean age, 15.8 years). The treated group was compared with a matched control group of 20 untreated subjects (10 females and 10 males) with dentoskeletal Class III malocclusion. Statistical comparisons between two groups were performed with the independent samples t-test (P < 0.05).ResultsSignificant improvements were found during the long-term T1–T3 interval for profile facial angle (–5.8°), nasolabial angle (–4.4°), mandibular sulcus (–10.3°), upper lip protrusion (+0.7 mm), and lower lip protrusion (–1.1 mm) in the treated group. No significant post-pubertal effects were found in terms of lower face percentage between two groups.LimitationsThis study has a retrospective design and it used a historical control sample.ConclusionThe FMP induced positive effects on soft tissue facial profile with a good long-term post-pubertal stability.

ABSTRACT Objectives: To investigate the retromolar space available for molar distalization in patients with mandibular prognathism. Materials and Methods: Using cone-beam computed tomography, the posterior mandibular dimensions in 110 consecutive patients with Class I or Class III malocclusion were measured (mean age, 27.0 ± 7.1 years). The shortest linear distances from the distal root of the right mandibular second molar to the inner border of the mandibular cortex were measured at the level of root furcation and 2, 4, and 6 mm apical to the furcation along the sagittal line and the posterior line of occlusion. The retromolar distances were compared between the Class I and Class III malocclusion groups using general linear mixed models. Results: The retromolar space measured through the sagittal line showed no significant intergroup difference. Among the distances measured through the posterior line of occlusion, the space measured at depths 0 and 2 mm to the furcation were significantly greater in the Class III group than in the Class I group. Conclusions: Patients with Class III malocclusion have greater retromolar space for mandibular molar distalization along the posterior line of occlusion only at the level of the second molar furcation.

Class I malocclusion also called neutro-occlusion, this describes a normal molar relationship but there is malposition of one or more individual teeth. Treatment of Class I malocclusion varies depending on the condition and severity. However, the purpose of this report is to review the orthodontic treatment of a Class I malocclusion with buccally placed canine without extraction. This case report describes a 13-year-old girl with a Class I malocclusion, anterior and posterior crossbite, a retrusive maxilla with high canine. The Class I malocclusion with posterior crossbite was corrected with quad helix followed by non extraction orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances to correct anterior crossbite. At the end of treatment we obtained an acceptable occlusion relationship and the facial profile and the patient's smile were improved substantially.Ban J Orthod & Dentofac Orthop, April 2014; Vol-4 (1-2), P.20-22

Maxillary Deficiency

Class III malocclusion is one of the most difficult problems to treat. It has a multifactorial etiology involving both genetic and environmental causes. The dental and skeletal effects of maxillary protraction with a facemask are well documented in several studies. Although incorporation of expansion appliance along with facemask therapy can improve correcting both sagittal and transverse discrepancy of maxilla. The following case shows early treatment of a 9 year old boy with maxillary deficiency using an expansion screw along with facemask. Facemask therapy was followed by fixed orthodontic treatment to settle the occlusion. Treatment was completed after 14 months with positive overjet, class I molar and canine relationship on right and left side.
