“…Based on the literature, facial growth stops at the age of 15 years for women, while that in men stops at the age 17-18 years. 13 Complete maxillary and mandibular growth stops at the age above 17 years in women and 20 years of age for men. 14 Therefore, the sample age of men and women was made different so that the anatomical points used as a reference in this study are relatively constant benchmark points.…”

People with down syndrome have a different craniofacial structure compared to normal individuals. Commonly, down syndrome patients have abnormal ear morphology with smaller size, and lower ear position compared to that of normalsubjects. These patients also have smaller nose, shorter maxilla structure and facial height. Other disorders are anomalies in tooth shape, numbers and size. The ala-tragus line is one of the anatomical landmarks to determine the occlusal plane orientation. Abnormalities in the anatomical structure of people with down syndrome can affect the parallelism between the ala-tragus line and the occlusal plane. The purpose of this research was to determine the differences in parallelism between the ala-tragus line and the occlusal plane of people with down syndrome and normal individuals. The sample in this study were people with down syndrome and normal individuals. The sample was photographed using a digital camera with a fox plane attached to the oral cavity. Parallelism of the ala-tragus line and the occlusal plane was analyzed by tracing these photographs. Photo tracing was done using the Autocad 2013 software. The mean value of angle on people with down syndrome (5.852° ± 5.367°) was greater than that of normal individuals (2.169° ± 2.557°). Based on the research, it was concluded that the parallelism of the ala-tragus line to the occlusal plane in people with down syndrome was different from that in normal individuals. The ala-tragus inferior line in normal individuals was more parallel to the occlusal plane compared to that in people with down syndrome.

All young people have an idol to follow, which can be a rock star or a great professor. Many people, including the greatest professors, do not realize their positive influence in their students' education. When I started the specialization course in Orthodontics at the Rio de Janeiro State University (UERJ), I knew nothing about this specialty, dentist's offices or teaching, and I needed orientation. Having good-hearted and altruist professors determined the path I should follow. Among such professors, I would like to highlight Prof. Jonas Capelli Jr.the expert I present in this interview. Being from the first class of the course, he has always been a model to us. Dr. Capelli Jr. is the Director of the Brazilian Board of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (BBO) and has received many awards, such as the CDABO Case Report of the Year, for the best case report published during 2007 in the AJO-DO. In addition, he has had more than 60 articles published in scientific journals. Therefore, coordinating this interview could not be more rewarding and satisfactory to me. I proudly claim that it will provide us with a wide range of expertise concerning our clinical and scientific practice within our beloved field. In addition, this interview will allow us to know more about the professor who has been considered a positive and inspiring milestone in his students' lives as well as in the history of Brazilian Orthodontics.

Class III malocclusions with a severe hyperdivergent growth pattern are very complex to plan and treat. This case report describes the treatment of an adult with a skeletal Class III malocclusion with a midface deficiency, severe bilateral posterior crossbite, and a severe hyperdivergent growth pattern by a combination of a bonded rapid maxillary expansion appliance and surgical procedure of Le Fort I osteotomy for maxillary advancement.
