Severe mandibular protrusion was observed (Figure 12). 2, Intra-oral Examination: Occlusal relationship of the molars is Angle class III and crowding of the maxillary anterior teeth were observed Overjet is -4.1 mm, overbite is 3.2 mm. 2 Cephalometric radiograph: SNA 80°, SNB 85° showing a clear mandibular protrusion, FH- MPis 30°. (Figure 13). OP-MP is 18°, OP-MP/ PP-MP IS 0.63, showing a flattening of the occlusal plane.

With that, the treatment objectives in orthodontic occlusal reconstruction were 1) elimination of posterior discrepancy. 2) restoration of the harmony of the occlusion and maxillofacial skeleton, 3) alignment of the molars with mesial tipping 4) improvement of anterior guidance by improving the anterior teeth overlap and elimination of crowding and functional
