Summary |
Class III malocclusion when accompanied with transverse and vertical maxillomandibular discrepancies such as posterior crossbite and vertical open bite leads to complicated orthodontic treatment. Proper diagnosis and treatment planning are important in such patients for a successful orthodontic outcome. A common treatment approach for patients with class III malocclusion is to wait for the completion of growth and plan orthognathic surgery in conjunction with orthodontic treatment. However, performing no treatment and waiting for growth to be completed during teen years could lead to negative effects on the patient's self-esteem. In such cases, a non-surgical option with skeletal anchorage could be used to correct the malocclusion without surgical intervention. This case report shows that in patients with severe class III malocclusion, skeletal anchorage can be used for the correction of anterior crossbite with intermaxillary elastics.
