Abstract

|
Class III malocclusion is more common problem in the Oriental. Their chief complaints are mandibular prognathism, deficient mastication, and esthetic problem. Early C1 III malocclusion treatment is necessary for normal function reconstruction.
This report presents a case with mandibular prognathism that was treated by means of Fixed edgewise appliance and MEAW mechanics. Class III MEAS mechanics is composed of upper ideal archwire, lower multiloop archwire (MEAW), and intermaxillary
elastics.
After 10 months active treatment, a good Class I molar relationship was obtained.
