To obtain the best results in the treatment of patients with Angle Class III malocclusion, the etiologies of the malocclusion should first be clarified, and then an appropriate treatment modality should be decided. Angle Class III malocclusions in 120 subjects who had orthognathic surgery were analyzed with cephalometrics and facial photos and classified into 3 categories based on the abnormali...

a tower or steeple. Hence such a skull is often called a tower skull or steeple head. The supra-orbital ridges are low and feebly marked, and the hairy scalp begins at a high level. The eyes which are unduly prominent (exophthalmos) are set far apart (hypertelorism and are often divergent. The arch of the hard palate is also high and narrow, and there may be a varying degree of prognathism. Som...

A 19-year-old woman presented to our dental clinic with anterior crossbite and mandibular prognathism. She had a concave profile, long face, and Angle Class III molar relationship. She showed disharmony in the crowding of the maxillomandibular dentition and midline deviation. The diagnosis and treatment plan were established by a three-dimensional (3D) virtual setup and 3D surgical simulation, ...

Cleidocranial dysplasia is a developmental anomaly of the skeleton and the teeth which is result of faulty development of membranous bones. This condition may be inherited or transmitted as dominant characteristics in either sex, or even may appear spontaneously. It presents with a wide range of features, characterized by clavicular aplasia or hypoplasia, short stature, supernumerary teeth. Oth...

Class III malocclusion is a consequence of maxillary deficiency and/or mandibular prognathism, often resulting in an anterior crossbite and a concave profile.1 Young patients with maxillary hypoplasia are usually treated with a facemask: heavy anterior traction is applied on the maxilla to stimulate its growth and to restrain or redirect mandibular growth. Forward and downward movement of the m...

Introduction: Many authors have discussed the relationship between craniofacial morphology and pharyngeal airway spaces in different malocclusions skeletal patterns. So aim of this work was to study relation sagittal position mandible volume adults using CBCT. Materials And Methods:Twentyone CBCT radiographs were collected from archive Radiology Department at Suez Canal University divided into ...
