| Abstract: | Skeletal Class III malocclusions are the result of deficient maxillary growth, excessive mandibular growth or a combination of both. Vertical as well as transverse dimensions can be disturbed too. Skeletal, dental and functional characteristics are described briefly. Treatment planning is outlined with special reference to the pattern of development during different growth stages and its consequences for therapeutical intervention. At last possibilities and limitations of surgical/orthodontic correction of the skeletal discrepancy and its dental compensations are discussed. |
