Abstract
This paper describes the clinical orthodontic treatment of the three cases that were awarded the 1999 Forestadent® Young Specialist Prize. There are two Class II division 1 cases treated by different treatment modalities and a Class II division 2 case complicated by a palatally ectopic maxillary canine. These case reports demonstrate the three main treatment modalities available to the orthodontist for treating skeletally-based malocclusions, i.e. growth modification, orthodontic camouflage, and a combined surgical-orthodontic approach.
Key words: Class II treatment, growth modification, mandibular surgery, Twin Block
