case_images: Extraoral facial analysis showed a hypodivergent facial pattern and a mesoprosopic facial form with a symmetrical face (Figure 1). The patient was in the permanent dentition stage, and the teeth were generally healthy with no carious lesions (Figure 1). Analysis of a lateral cephalometric radiograph showed a severe Class III sagittal jaw relationship with a retrognathic maxilla and a prognathic mandible (Figure 2 or Table 1).

case_images: Analysis of the panoramic radiograph showed the teeth in the permanent dentition stage with generalized shortening of the roots, especially the maxillary incisors and mandibular molars (Figure 2). Analysis of a lateral cephalometric radiograph showed a severe Class III sagittal jaw relationship with a retrognathic maxilla and a prognathic mandible (Figure 2 or Table 1).
