Abstract

Read online

The present systematic review aimed to determine cephalometric values that may be used as a guide in deciding between orthodontic camouflage and orthognathic surgery to treat a Class III malocclusion in adults. In addition, a secondary aim was to identify treatment complications and aesthetic perceptions by laypersons/orthodontists.
