Abstract :

Treatment of class II malocclusion requires accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. This case report outlines the successful management of a growing skeletal class II using Forsus fatigue resistant device for correction of skeletal parameters and premolar extractions for correction of dental parameters. The patient’s profile improved significantly with a 4° reduction in ANB angle. An ideal overjet, overbite and molar relation were also attained.
