ABSTRACT

According to the WHO, in Mexico malocclusions represent a 75 % public health problem in adolescents. The prevalence of Class III Malocclusions in white subjects is approximately 1-5 %, however in Asians it increases to 14 %. The most common orthopedic treatment protocol for the management of Class III Malocclusion is the Rapid Palatal Expansion (EPR) in combination with Facial Mask (MF). The use of temporary anchoring devices (DAT) in maxillary protraction has increased in recent years. The goal of using MF/EPR with temporary anchoring devices is to eliminate side effects and increase skeletal effects. This case describes the approach and management of Class III Malocclusion with Rapid Palatal Expansion assisted by the use of temporary skeletal anchoring devices.
