“…A 6-mm arch width discrepancy was observed before treatment, and the maxillary arch was extremely narrow. It is worth mentioning that a narrow maxillary arch and crowding were proven to be associated with bad oral habits such as tongue thrusting, as the disequilibrium of muscle and hard tissues is highly likely to lead to malocclusions [ 9 , 10 ]. The patient quits the habit of oral thrusting as advised, which had a positive effect on the treatment outcome.…”

Cleft lip and palate is a congenital craniofacial anomaly that affects the lip and oral cavity. The management and orthodontic treatment of this anomaly is important but challenging. This article reports the successful treatment of a patient with bilateral cleft lip and palate, Class III malocclusion, bilateral crossbite, crowding and microdontic maxillary lateral incisors. One mandible incisor was extracted, and three miniscrew anchorages were utilized to distalize the maxillary left dental arch and retract the mandibular arch. After treatment, ideal occlusion and a better profile were established, and long-term stability was confirmed by a 4-year follow-up. This article represents a successful attempt of orthodontic camouflage treatment of severe dentofacial discrepancy, as an important part of the series treatment of cleft lip and palate, to provide some insight into the clinical field.

This case report presents the non-surgical orthodontic camouflage treatment of an 18-year-old male patient with skeletal Class III asymmetry and severe anterior open bite. The anterior open bite was corrected by extrusion of the maxillary and mandibular anterior teeth and clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of the maxillary and mandibular occlusal plane, respectively, using intermaxillary Class III elastics between the maxillary posterior buccal miniscrews and mandibular canines and anterior vertical elastics between the maxillary and mandibular canines. Class III dental relationships and dental asymmetry were corrected via unilateral distalization of the mandibular dentition on the left side using a closed coil spring between the buccal shelf screw and hook. The patient’s smile esthetics and dental relationship were improved with a more favorable facial profile, and facial asymmetry was slightly alleviated after orthodontic camouflage treatment. The total treatment time was 15 months. A modified wraparound retainer with a scalloped labial bow, tongue crib, and tooth positioner was used simultaneously to prevent the potential relapse.
