Statistical investigation regarding clinical and therapeutic aspects of class III Angle anomalies

Introduction. The treatment of dento-maxillary anomalies requires knowledge of the etiological factors involved in the occurrence of diseases and manifestations related to the age, general condition and dento-periodontal status of the patient. Aim and objectives. From the multitude of dento-maxillo-facial anomalies we chose the study of the incidence of class III Angle anomalies, given that it is a dysmorphic entity, with a special multifactorial etiology and various clinical manifestations, dental, functional or skeletal. Material and method. Depending on the particularities of each clinical case, in order to evaluate a correct diagnosis and establish an effective treatment plan, clinical and paraclinical investigations were performed based on which a statistic on the incidence of class III anomaly was performed on a group of 56 patients, aged 7-45 years, consulted and treated for a period of 18 months. Results and discussions. In the whole study group (N = 410 patients), a low frequency of clinical cases with class III angle abnormality (N = 56) was found, results that were observed with the help of static analysis performed and exemplified by graphical methods. Conclusions. Although there is a wide range of treatment modalities, from a prophylactic, interceptive and curative point of view, current orthodontic technical advances allow the clinician to offer a quality, individualized orthodontic treatment with favorable aesthetic results and in association with psycho-somatic and social status of the patient.
