The absence of the temporary incisors could be to a genetic illness or to some multiple premature extractions. These extractions are the aftermaths of the carious lesions or some traumatisms underwent by the temporary incisors. Beyond measure the loss of the space, the premature loss some temporary incisors very often assign the relational development of the child and disturb its psychological development and the aesthetic function. Across some cases clinics, the authors show that the replacement of the temporary incisors is the therapeutic ideal solution. Indeed, the child prosthesis, replacing the temporary absent incisors, solves the psychological, aesthetic and relational problems of the child.

This case report details the treatment of a 23-year-old female patient with Class II division 2 malocclusion with a Class II skeletal base due to a retrognathic mandible. The condition was further complicated by a complete overbite, absence of tooth #36, and a gummy smile. The Forsus appliance has shown to be effective in correcting Class II malocclusion in adult patients, with significant improvements in bite and facial esthetics.

Introduction: The dentoskeletal effects of clear aligner treatment (CAT) with Invisalign vs temporary skeletal anchorage device-anchored Sydney intrusion spring (SIS) were compared in consecutively treated growing patients with anterior open bite using cone-beam computed tomography scans.

Methods: Fifteen adolescents treated exclusively with Invisalign, and 14 with SIS (first-phase treatment) were assessed retrospectively. Rigid-wise, voxel-based registration of pretreatment and posttreatment cone-beam computed tomography scans were performed using the anterior cranial base, maxillary plane, and mandibular body as reference regions.

Article Synopsis
  • Class III malocclusion is challenging to treat, often requiring maxillary protraction to address underlying maxillary retrognathia.
  • A 16-year-old Vietnamese girl exhibited severe anterior crossbite and Class III malocclusion, characterized by a prognathic mandible and retrognathic maxilla, without any noted medical issues.
  • The recommended treatment involved using multiloop edgewise archwire (MEAW) alongside temporary anchorage devices (TADs) and modified Class III elastics, offering a non-surgical camouflage therapy for this condition.
