Compensatory Treatment of a Complex Class III Malocclusion
Volume 56 : Number 2 : Page 20220201 : Feb 2022
Recent technological advances in thermoactivated and superelastic wires and skeletal anchorage have enabled simpler compensatory orthodontic treatment of skeletal Class III patients without extractions or orthognathic surgery. In this case, the authors use passive self-ligating brackets and extra-alveolar mandibular skeletal anchorage.

CASE REPORT
Volume 51 : Number 7 : Page 419 : Jul 2017
A nonextraction approach is demonstrated in an adult high-angle patient with a skeletal Class malocclusion and severe crowding. By using low-friction, passive self-ligating brackets and bilateral temporary anchorage devices over 18 months of treatment, the authors are able to avoid any surgical intervention other than an advancement genioplasty.
