Abstract

Class III malocclusion (either anterior cross bite or edge-to-edge bite) is the results of labio lingual mal relationship of one or more upper and lower incisor teeth. To correct the Class III malocclusion different methods has been practiced. In each of the cases presented here, the class III malocclusion was treated by extracting lower 1st premolars. The procedure is a simple and effective method for treating this malocclusion and can establish normal overbite and overjet.
