Craniofacial form in class III cases

F Mackay, JA Jones, R Thompson and W Simpson
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, University Hospital of South Manchester, West Didsbury.

Lateral skull cephalograms from 50 patients who subsequently had surgical correction of their Class III malocclusion were analysed using a complete linkage cluster analysis based on skull shape. Five subgroups were identified and are described. All subjects had a degree of mandibular prognathism while only 14 per cent had maxillary retrognathism. An increased lower face height was found in 58 per cent.
