Conservative camouflage Class III treatment is a widely accepted alternative for patients who prefer a non-surgical correction. Extra-alveolar TSADs can provide absolute anchorage during tooth movement, and when combined with aligners, sequential distalization can be utilized to correct Class III malocclusion. Class III elastics and attachments are also important auxiliaries to overcome common side-effects.
Learning Objectives:
After this session, attendees will be able to:
Apply the 3-ring diagnosis scheme in Class III diagnosis.
Determine the appropriate extraction strategies for varying types of Class III malocclusion.
Correctly insert extra-alveolar miniscrews in combination with aligner therapy.
