Abstract
Class II malocclusions are of immense interest to orthodontists as they constitute a significant percentage of the cases they treat. This study aimed to recognize the importance of the variations of Class II malocclusion and its implications in determining the best treatment approach. The sample of this study was collected from cases that had been reported to private clinics in Navi Mumbai and had not undergone any previous or ongoing orthodontic treatment. 58 lateral cephalograms were selected from patients having Class II malocclusion. Cephalometric tracing was performed manually. Steiner, Tweed and Jarabak analyses were done. It was seen that there is a significant difference in the maxillary and mandibular incisor angulation and position of the mandible between Class II Division 1 and 2 malocclusion cases; between cephalometric parameters of females and males in cases with Class II Division 1 and 2 cases with respect to the mandibular incisor angulation, mandibular corpus length, posterior cranial base, facial depth and posterior facial height; between the cephalometric parameters of cases with less than and more than 14 years of age in individuals with Class II Division 2 malocclusion with respect to the gonial angle, mandibular plane angle, the maxillary and mandibular incisor angulation and position, angle of convexity, ramus height, facial depth, posterior and anterior facial heights; upper and lower lip position. Thus, Class II malocclusions show a significantly diverse array of skeletal, dental and soft tissue cephalometric parameters; hence a customized orthodontic treatment plan for each case is imperative.
