Angle Class III Malocclusion (Angle Class III)

01/01/2013 - "The analyzed case represents a 14-year-old patient that came to the dental consulting room with an Angle Class III malocclusion determined by the excess of the somatotropic pituitary hormone and a gingival hyperplasia more emphasized at the level of inferior frontal teeth. "

01/01/2012 - "We present a retrospective study of 30 consecutive cases of bimaxillary orthognathic surgery with biodegradable self-reinforced poly-L/DL-lactide plates and tacks, for the same indication of Angle class III malocclusion. "

01/01/2010 - "Dentoalveolar measurements included U1 to NA (Class III group: 11.98 +/- 5.25; normal group: 8.12 +/- 5.43), IMPA (Class III group: 81.34 +/- 7.40; normal group: 86.57 +/- 5.67), and interincisal angle (Class III group: 152.65 +/- 8.82; normal group: 145.03 +/- 7.34). "

09/01/2009 - "The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the temporomandibular joint morphology, regarding the relation between mandibular condyle and fossa, after bilateral sagittal split osteotomy in Angle class III dentomaxillary anomalies. "
01/01/2012 - "Two patients with Angle class III malocclusion underwent a Le Fort I osteotomy for maxillary advancement. "
09/01/1997 - "All patients with osteotomy had skeletal angle class III resulting from insufficient midfacial growth. "
11/01/1980 - "A series of 25 extreme Angle class III cases who were operated on by a combined advancement of the maxilla after Le Fort I osteotomy and retropositioning of the mandible after sagittal splitting of the rami was evaluated clinically and radiologically (mean 4 years) after the osteotomies. "
11/01/1980 - "It is therefore concluded from this study, that a combined osteotomy of upper and lower jaw is the treatment of choice for extreme Angle class III deformities. "

01/01/2008 - "Self-esteem and depression in patients presenting angle class III malocclusion submitted for orthognathic surgery."
08/01/2009 - "The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes of soft tissues at each treatment stage in patients with skeletal Angle Class III malocclusion after orthodontic-orthognathic surgery and to assess the long-term stability after treatments. "
09/01/1989 - "It shows how to plan pre and post surgical rehabilitation in a Angle Class III orthognathic surgery patient and the use of temporary pre-surgical restorations to establish and fix the mandible in its new position in habitual occlusion and vertical dimension from the same day of surgery."
07/01/2015 - "To evaluate quality of life (QoL) from a broad perspective by a comparison of Turkish patients undergoing orthognathic surgery to correct Angle Class III skeletal deformity with a control group composed of participants without dentofacial deformity using general health, generic oral health, and condition-specific QoL approaches. "
05/01/2014 - "Assessment criteria include a low mandibular plane angle Class III patients who have severe maxillary retrognathism unable to be treated by conventional orthopaedic correction alone; patients who have almost completed growth and missed the chance of earlier orthopaedic correction, as well as patients who are not willing to accept bimaxillary orthognathic surgery, may be successfully treated."

08/01/2009 - "The purpose of this study was to analyze the changes of soft tissues at each treatment stage in patients with skeletal Angle Class III malocclusion after orthodontic-orthognathic surgery and to assess the long-term stability after treatments. "

09/01/1989 - "It shows how to plan pre and post surgical rehabilitation in a Angle Class III orthognathic surgery patient and the use of temporary pre-surgical restorations to establish and fix the mandible in its new position in habitual occlusion and vertical dimension from the same day of surgery."
09/01/2004 - "This clinical report describes a multidisciplinary approach for the treatment of a patient with Angle Class III skeletal malocclusion and decreased occlusal vertical dimension. "
01/01/2007 - "In the sagittal plane, the patients suffered from a mild to a very severe Angle Class III malocclusion, which was sometimes compensated by the inclination of the lower incisors; in the vertical dimension from an open bite; and transversally from a single tooth in crossbite to a circular crossbite. "

10/01/2006 - "Maxillary distraction osteogenesis is indicated in severe angle class III malocclusions, and severe maxillary hypoplasia among some cleft patients and other craniofacial deformities. "
09/01/2010 - "The authors propose a new approach to a patient with dysmorphism (class II, short ramus, and open bite) using distraction osteogenesis to change the skeletal pattern of patients with high-angle class II to low-angle class III before undergoing traditional orthognathic surgery. "
