Orthodontics is one of the oldest subjects in dentistry field. The attempt of orthodontic treatment is to manage the types of malocclusions that affect the functional ability, structural imbalance and esthetic harmony. Among those malocclusions, Class III malocclusion should be taken into account, particularly
between children and adult patients. The mechanism for the treatment of class Ⅲ could be involved with growth modification, camouflage or orthognathic surgery.
In my presentation I would like to share about class Ⅲ management with different appliances for children such as Class Ⅲ activator, the combination between facemask and rapid expansion method, and fixed appliances. Whereas, in adult patients the camouflage treatment with fixed appliances will be introduced.
However, the severity of Class Ⅲ that can’t be treated with fixed appliances, orthognathic surgery would be indicated.
