“…1,2 Traditionally, patients who were reluctant to undergo surgical procedures to improve their Class III dental relationships turned to camouflage orthodontic treatment with different extraction patterns according to the proclination of the mandibular incisors and the amount of negative overjet. [3][4][5] Recently, temporary skeletal anchorage devices (TSADs) have decreased the need for extractions and surgical procedures. [6][7][8][9][10][11] Previous studies have reported the achievement of 4 to 5 mm of mandibular molar distalization using miniscrews in the retromolar area.…”

The retromolar fossa is an anatomically suitable skeletal anchorage site. The aim of this report was to introduce a novel appliance for the correction of skeletal Class III malocclusions with mandibular dentition distalization. The placement site and the procedure of the ramal plate are described. The resulting force vectors are parallel to the functional occlusal plane leading to efficient molar distalization. This approach is demonstrated with 2 adult patients who refused a surgical treatment option. This ramal plate may be indicated for total arch distalization for nonextraction and nonsurgical cases.

“…Most facemask patients significantly improved in the short term, but current data suggest that proximally 25% eventually require orthognathic surgery anyway. Better selection of patients for facemask treatment should improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the method [2,3,4,10].…”

“…Class III treatment is considerable clinical challenge and commonly includes (1) growth modification involving a chin cup to restrain mandibular growth or a facemask to protract the maxilla, (2) dentoalveolar compensation or camouflage involving dental extractions, and (3) orthognathic surgery. In this list alternatives orthodontic treatment is often seen as either a less-desirable alternative to surgery or a treatment reserved for milder skeletal problems [1,2,3].…”

Abstract-Skeletal Class III malocclusion is some of the most complex cases to treat. Currently, orthognathic surgery and orthodontic camouflage are the standard technique for treating this condition in fully growing patients. With skeletal Class III orthodontic patients camouflage can be used to treat milder cases with Class III elastic. When patient declines orthodontic surgery, camouflage treatment with Class III elastics is a valid option. In this case report will showing two patients with skeletal Class III and the treatment for the first patient using fixed appliance and Class III elastic, the second patient using camouflage treatment and extraction of both the mandibular first premolars, and Class III elastic. The result of treatment are for the first patient malocclusion could be treated with Class III elastic and orthodontic movement, and the second patient the treatment technique needed extraction of the mandibular first premolar and used Class III elastic. As a conclusion are the skeletal Class III malocclusion could be treated with or without extraction of mandibular first premolar and the treatment have to use Class III elastics.

“…2,[5][6][7][8] They also induce extrusion of the upper molars and lower incisors, resulting in counterclockwise rotation of the occlusal plane and an increase in the facial height. 5,8 However, proclined upper incisors and flat smile arcs are unfavorable esthetic outcomes. The position and inclination of the upper incisors and the sagittal cant of the occlusal plane are important components of facial and smile esthetics.…”

This case report presents the successful use of palatal mini-implants for rapid maxillary expansion and mandibular distalization in a skeletal Class III malocclusion. The patient was a 13-year-old girl with the chief complaint of facial asymmetry and a protruded chin. Camouflage orthodontic treatment was chosen, acknowledging the possibility of need for orthognathic surgery after completion of her growth. A bone-borne rapid expander (BBRME) was used to correct the transverse discrepancy and was then used as indirect anchorage for distalization of the lower dentition with Class III elastics. As a result, a Class I occlusion with favorable inclination of the upper teeth was achieved without any adverse effects. The total treatment period was 25 months. Therefore, BBRME can be considered an alternative treatment in skeletal Class III malocclusion. (Angle Orthod. 2015;85:322-334.)
