Abstract

Class III malocclusion can be classified as dentoalveolar, skeletal or functional, which will determine the prognosis. The aim of this article was to describe and discuss a clinical case with skeletal Class III malocclusion treated with frankle 3 appliance and fixed mechanotherapy and followed up for two years.
