Tratamento da classe iii assimétrica

Abstract

This article presents the clinical report of a Class III malocclusion case, right subdivision, with presence of antero-inferior crowding and deviation of inferior medium dental line to the left in relation to sagital plane. Patient was submitted to Class III malocclusion asymmetrical treatment, subdivision, with extraction of the first right inferior premolar. Clinically, harmony, balance and aesthetics of the patient’s facial thirds remained, keeping passive lips sealing. Regarding to dental positions, dental crowding correction and adjustment of inferior medium dental line in relation to the medium sagital plane were achieved. The orthodontic mechanics promoted correct establishment of dental disocclusion guides, with balanced and functio nal oclusal relationships. The results emphasize the importance of correct and individualized diagnosis, with identification of the dentoalveloar and skeletal components responsible for the malocclusions. Besides that, the ideal choice for the orthodontic mechanics seems to be essential, enlarging the effectiveness and success of the treatment
