Here is a case report of a 16 year old female patient with Class III malocclusion with Class III molar relation on both sides. The patient was diagnosed with normodivergent face pattern, proclined upper anterior, and crowded lower anterior, concave profile, potentially competent lips, reverse overjet and 0% overbite, and shallow mentolabial sulcus. The treatment was planned with a maxillary splint, mini-screws in mandible, and Class III elastics for Phase 1 and Phase 2 fixed appliance using the passive self-ligation system. The facial changes produced as a result of treatment were directly related to skeletal and dentoalveolar modifications that were designed as goals for patient treatment.
