No randomized controlled trial has compared the treatment outcome between surgical mandibular advancement and premolar extractions in class II malocclusion. This 2-arm parallel randomized controlled trial evaluated the treatment effects and lip profile changes in skeletal class II adult patients subjected to bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy for mandibular advancement and those treated with premolar extractions. Seventy skeletal class II patients were accessed and forty-six subjects who fulfilled inclusion criteria were distributed randomly into Group CG (patients: 23, mean age: 21.

Background: Increased upper lip procumbency is commonly associated with maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion with the major goal of reducing maxillary dentoalveolar protrusion. The treatment plan usually includes extraction of the maxillary first premolars, followed by retraction of anterior teeth with maximum anchorage. Dental implants have been widely accepted as successful adjuncts for obtaining maximum anchorage in orthodontic treatment.
