Abstract

A case report of an adolescent girl with a skeletal Class II malocclusion is presented. Early intervention of Class II malocclusion was frequently undertaken with objective of correcting skeletal disproportion by altering growth pattern and in case of remaining dental discrepancy a fixed mechanotherapy is obligatory. The need for early identification and intervention of the skeletal Class II malocclusion is universally accepted by dentofacial orthopaedicians. Thus, treatment in the mixed or early permanent dentition can produce favourable results. An 11 years old female patient with convex profile, lower lip trap, Class II skeletal as well as dental relation. The treatment started with Functional Regulator II to promote growth of mandible and improve her profile thus followed by fixed mechanotherapy to align and level dentition, close spaces and retract incisors. The intent of this article is to discuss early intervention of a skeletal class II malocclusion along with a rationale of orthodontic management of such patients.
