fa Skeletal class III malocclusion treated using a non-surgical approach supplemented with mini-implants: a case report ارتودنسی Orthodontics پژوهشي Research We describe a 28-year-old man who sought orthodontic treatment complaining about the esthetics of his smile and difficulties associated with masticatory function. The patient had a straight facial profile, skeletal and dental class III relationship, anterior open bite and posterior crossbite. He refused orthognathic surgery and was therefore treated with camouflage orthodontics supplemented with the placement of one mini-implant in each side of the mandible to facilitate movement of the lower dentition distally, tooth-by-tooth. At the end of treatment, a class I molar relationship was obtained, with an ideal overjet and overbite and excellent intercuspation. Furthermore, the open bite and crossbite were corrected. Analysis 2 years after treatment revealed good stability of treatment outcome. <hr><p> <strong>Source: </strong>Journal of Orthodontics</p><p> <a href="http://jorthod.maneyjournals.org/content/40/3/256.abstract" target="_blank"><font color="#0000ff">Full Text</font></a></p> Class III malocclusion, non-surgical treatment, mini-implants 0 0 http://idai.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-32-1905&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 Marcel Marchiori Farret marcelfarret@yahoo.com.br 10031947532846008921 10031947532846008921 Yes Milton M Benitez Farret 10031947532846008922 10031947532846008922 No Department of Orthodontics, Federal University of Santa Maria, RS, Brazil
