Treatment Of An Adult With Class II Division 2 Malocclusion
INTRODUCTION
Epidemiologic investigations have shown that in a
population 2-5% of individuals have Class II division 2
malocclusion.1,2 Retrusion of maxillary incisors is one of
the main characteristics of class II division 2 malocclusion.3
Therefore, first step in the treatment strategy is to procline
the upper incisors by removable plates or protrusion
utility arches and converting Class II division 2 to a Class II
division 1. Later, class 2 mechanics are used for correction.4
In prepubertal or pubertal period, removable functional
appliances can be used but in postpubertal period usually
fixed functional appliances are preferred.
CASE REPORT
23 year 1 month old white girl referred to Hacettepe
University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of
Orthodontics with a chief complaint that she did not like her
smile because of the crowding of her anterior teeth. Her
medical and dental histories were unremarkable.
Extraoral examinations showed concave profile
with prominent chin and deep labiomental sulcus. In
anteroposterior projection no asymmetry was noticed.
Her lips were competent (Figure 1). Intraorally she had
class II molar and class II canine relationships in the right
and left segments (Figure 2). Mandibular dental midline
was centered relative to facial midline but maxillary dental
midline was 2 mm deviated to the right of facial midline.
The maxillary arch was square shaped with 8 mm crowding
(Figure 3). In mandibular arch there was 6 mm crowding in
the anterior region (Figure 4).
The panoramic x-rays showed no caries and no pathologies.
All permanent teeth were present, right maxillary and both
mandibular third molars were impacted (Figure 5).
Cephalometric examinations showed that both maxilla and
mandible were retrusive and mandible was more retrusive
with an ANB angle of 6°. Lower anterior facial height was
in normal values with 46°. Dentally, both the maxillary and
mandibular incisors were retroclined relative to cranial and
apical bases and there was excessive deepbite (Figures
6-8).
Treatment Objectives
Our goals were to improve the patient’s facial esthetics and
to provide functional occlusion. According to Ricketts soft
tissue analysis, lower lip should be 2 mm behind E line. In
our case lower lip was -4 mm to Ricketts E line. To improve

facial esthetics, we should make lips more prominent and
therefore, we planned nonextraction treatment strategy.
Dental treatment objectives included correction of class
II molar and canine relations, correction of deep bite
and correction of crowding by protrusion of incisors and
expansion of dental arches.
During treatment, patient was instructed for extraction of
third molars, so all third molars were extracted in finishing
phase. For retention; Hawley retainers were placed above
upper and lower bonded lingual retainers and the patient
was instructed to wear them full time for one year. After
one year patient was called for periodic evaluation.
Treatment Alternatives
Treatment Results
First treatment option was mandibular surgery after the
extraction of right and left mandibular first premolars for
crowding and coordination of dental arches by expansion
and upper incisor proclination. Because of prominent chin,
after mandibular surgery genioplasty could be necessary.
The patient was not willing for surgical treatment.
Second treatment option was extraction treatment with
the extraction of upper first premolar and lower second
premolar. In that case correction of crowding and class II
molar canine relationship would be easier but profile of
patient would worsen and correction of deep bite would be
difficult.
In non-extraction treatment crowding can be solved by
expansion of the arches and proclination of upper and
lower incisors. This would improve esthetics and correction
of deep bite would be easier so we decided to apply nonextraction treatment.
Favorable facial changes were obtained (Figure 9). Lower
lip was forwarded 2 mm according to E plane. Ideal tooth
aspect was gained on full smile. Intraorally, deepbite was
resolved and ideal overjet and overbite relationships were
achieved. Maxillary and mandibular dental midlines were
coincident with facial midline and class 1 molar and canine
relationships were established (Figures 10, 11,12).
Cephalometrically, ANB angle decreased to 4° from 6° and
lower anterior facial height changed to 47° from 46°. Upper
and lower incisors were proclined relative to cranial and
apical bases, and this proclination also helped the correction
of deepbite (Figures 13, 14, 15). In final panoramic
radiograph, all third molars were extracted (Figure 16).
Treatment Progress
After evaluation of the diagnostic records; the patient history
and the decision of the patient non-extraction orthodontic
correction was chosen as the treatment strategy.
Expansion was started with the application of a quad-helix
appliance. Then, upper incisors were bonded and after
leveling with a utility arch, protrusion utility arch was placed
which has 45° intrusion bends. Concurrently mandibular
teeth were bonded and banded. After upper incisor
protraction, upper premolar and canines were bonded.
Later, for both upper and lower arches, 0,014 inch Ni-Ti,
0,016 inch Ni-Ti, 0,016x0,016 inch Ni-Ti and 0,016x0,016
stainless steel wires are used respectively. When upper and
lower leveling completed, 0.016x0.022 inch stainless steel
wires were placed and Forsus Fatigue Resistant Device
(3M Unitek 2724 South Peck Road Monrovia, CA 91016
USA) was used. Five months later, Class I molar and canine
relationships were achieved. Forsus FRD was removed
and for occlusal settling intermaxillary elastics was used.
2 months later, after 14 months from the beginning of
treatment, patient was debonded.
DISCUSSION
Usually, when treating patients who have 6 mm or more
crowding in the mandibular arch, we consider extraction.
But in the treatment of Class II division 2 malocclusion,
extraction would make the correction of deep bite difficult
and worsen the profile. In a case report, Asakawa et al.5
treated a girl with Class II division 2 malocclusion who has
8 mm mandibular crowding without extraction. They stated
that if the patient was treated with premolar or incisor
extraction, proper overjet and overbite couldn’t be obtained.
For the reasons mentioned above and to improve facial
profile we decided to treat the patient without extraction.
After leveling of maxillary and mandibular arches, we
corrected Class II molar and canine relationships by using
Forsus FRD. One of the main dental effects of Forsus
FRD is protrusion and intrusion of mandibular incisors
with labial tipping.6,7 In our case both effects are seen and
also protrusion and intrusion of mandibular incisors had
favorable effect on correction of deepbite.
Proclination of lower incisors are considered to be a major
factor for gingival recession. In a study, Melsen et al.8
concluded that the risk of periodontal damage secondary to
protrusion of incisors is small. Also, Hasund et al.9 noted that
mandibular incisors could be proclined more in the patients
with hypodivergent skeletal patterns and prominent chins.

In treatment of a Class II division 2 female, Asakawa et al.5
also proclined upper and lower incisors significantly, but at
the end of the treatment no periodontal damage was noted.
By proclination of upper and lower incisors, interincisal angle
decreased. In deepbite cases, it is chosen to achieve narrow
interincisal angle for stability. Riedel 10 proposed that at the
54
end of treatment, large interincisal angle is associated with
relapse of deep overbite.
Our treatment lasted in 14 months. If we take a look at
treatment durations of Class II division 2 malocclusions,
we see prolonged durations. Chen et al.11 treated a 42year old male with Class II division 2 malocclusion, deep

overbite and some missing teeth. The total treatment time
was 30 months. One of the reasons of excessive treatment
duration could be the age of the patient. There are
limited publications considering the relationship between
treatment duration and patient age.12,13 But in recent
articles comparing treatment duration no difference was
found between adults and adolescents.14,15 Another reason
for prolonged treatment time in that patient could be incisor
intrusion for correction of deepbite. In our case by incisor
protrusion and using Forsus FRD, deepbite was resolved
and no other effort was taken for correction of deepbite.
In another case report, 14 year old Class II division 2 female
with severe crowding was treated without extraction.5
Treatment duration was 24 months. She also had severe
deep bite and deep bite was corrected by incisor intrusion.
A 12 year old Class II division 2 male was also treated without
extraction and treatment duration was 14 months.16 It was
similar with our treatment duration.
According to Proffit 17; if Class II traction has proclined the
lower incisors more than 2 mm, permanent retention is
required. Usually patients are instructed to wear Hawley
retainers full time for one year, at night for an additional
year and later, return for periodic evaluation.11,16 In our
patient we used bonded lingual retainers and Hawley
retainers for retention.
CONCLUSIONS
Correction of Class II malocclusion without extraction
was achieved in 14 months. Class I molar and canine

relationships were obtained; favorable changes were seen
in patient’s profile, smile and aesthetics. Lower lip was
forwarded according to E plane so improvement in profile
was achieved. Upper arch was expanded and incisors were
proclined so patient’s smile was fulled and these results
improved her aesthetics.
