According to British Standards classification: “The lower incisor edges lie posterior to the cingulum plateau of the upper incisors, there is an increase in overjet and the upper central incisors are usually proclined.”
CLASS II DIVISION 1
etiology
Skeletal pattern
Soft tissue
habits
Dental factors
SKELETAL PATTERN• Usually associated with
skeletal Class II pattern, due to retrognathic mandible.
• Proclination of the upper
incisors &/or retroclination of the lower incisors by a habit or the soft tissues can result in an increase in overjet on skeletal Class I or even a Class III pattern
Influence of soft tissue is mainly mediated by skeletal pattern, antero-posteriorly & vertically.
Patient’s lips are incompetent, try to achieve anterior oral seal in one of the following ways:
Circumoral muscular activity. Forward postured mandible Lower lip is drawn up behind the upper incisors. Tongue is placed forward between incisors to
contact lower lip. Combination of these.
SOFT TISSUES
HABITS DIGIT SUCKING: – Proclination of the upper
incisors. Retroclination of the lower
labial segment. Incomplete overbite or
localized anterior open bite. Narrowing of maxillary
arch, Due to alteration in the balance between cheek & tongue pressure.
Crowding in upper incisors out of the arch labially result in exacerbation of the overjet
DENTAL FACTORS
Increased overjet. Often increased overbite. Incompetent lips. Class II molar, canine & incisor relationship.
OCCLUSAL FEATURESAnterior open
bite
Angle’s Class II div 2 malocclusion is characterized by Class II Molar relation.
It is when the buccal groove of the first mandibular molar occludes distal to the mesiobuccal cusp of the first maxillary molar, with retroclination of the maxillary central incisors
Incidence : 5 – 10 %
Class II Div 2
The lower incisor edges occlude posterior to the cingulum plateau of the upper incisors and the lower centrals are retroclined
British standards classification of incisor relationships
Van der Linden classification of Class II Div 2 depending on the spatial conditions in the maxillary dental arch :
Type A The upper central and lateral incisors are retroclined. It is of less severe in nature.
Type B-: The central incisors are retroclined and overlapped by the lateral incisors
Type C-: The central and lateral incisors are retroclined and overlapped by the canines.
1) squarish face (Brachycephalic).
2) Upper lip is invariably short and positioned high with respect to the upper anteriors.
3) Lower lip is thick flabby covering the upper incisors and exhibiting
4) Usually straight to mildly convex profile because of less skeletal discrepancy and the retroclined incisors
5) Deep mentolabial sulcus
CLINICAL FEATURES OF CLASS II DIV 2 EXTRAORAL
1) Class II molar relation indicating distal relation of mandible to the maxilla.
2) Decreased overjet, an increased overbite.3) Deep bite usually traumatic
INTRAORAL CHARACTERISTICS
1) The upper arch is usually broad, ‘U’ shaped.
2) The palatal vault is usually deep.
3) An exaggerated curve of spee
Diagnosis is the process of attempting to determine or identify a possible disease or disorder
(Extra oral and Intra oral features)
CLINICAL EVALUATION
Case history , Photographic analysis , Radiographic analysis , Cast analysis ,
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Examination of the tempromandibular joint Examination of orofacial dysfunction
FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS
Extra-oral Photographic
analysis
Class II divison 1 profile: convex Shape of head : dolicocephalicMento labial sulcus : shallow/deep
Class II divison 2
Profile : straight / convexShape of head : mesocephalic /dolichocephalicMento labial sulcus : normal
Clinical features of class II -division 1
classII molar relation, that may vary from end on molar to fully fledged class II
o proclined maxillary anteriors with resultant increased overjet
o spaced dentition
Intra oral photographic
analysis
V – shaped palatal arch
Excessive curve of spee
Deep palate
Increased over jet
Class II divison 2 malocclusion Excessive lingual
inclination ofthe maxillary central incisors overlapped on the labial by the maxillary lateral incisors.
In some Cases , both the central and the
lateral incisors are lingualy inclined and the canines overlap the lateral incisors on the labial.
o U – shaped palatal arch
o A deep overbite and minimal over jet
o with extreme overbite, the incisal edges of the lower incisors may contact the soft tissues of the palate
o In the absence of over jet) mandibular labial gingiva get traumatised by lingually inclined maxillary incisors

(N-S-Ar) .
provides an assessment of the relationship between anterior and posteriolateral cranial bases
Mean value 123+/-5
Thus a large saddle angle usually signifies a posterior condylar position and a mandible That is posteriorly positioned with respect to cranial base and maxilla
SADDLE ANGLE :
(S-Ar-Go)
Its size depend on position of the mandible ;
Angle is Large if mandible is retrognathic
Angle is Small if mandible is prognathic
Mean value(143+_6)
ARTICULAR ANGLE:
The angle S-N-A expresses the sagittal relationship between the anterior limit of the maxillary base and the anterior cranial base.
Mean value ( 81*)
It is large in prognathic maxillas
small in retruded maxillas .
S-N-A angle:
The angle S-N-B expresses the sagittal relationship between the anterior extent of the mandibular base and anterior cranial Base
Mean value (79*)
It is large with a prognathic mandible
It is small with a retrognathic mandible .
S-N-B angle:

Three treatment approaches are available : 1) Growth modification 2) Dental camouflage 3) Orthognathic surgery (with orthodontic treatment)
Treatment options for skeletal Class II malocclusions
1) Growth modification for class II skeletal problem: (Orthopedic treatment)
- The goal of growth modification is to enhance the unacceptable skeletal relationship by modifying remaining facial growth pattern of the jaws.
- Optimum timing : Pre-pubertal growth spurt (active growth period)
Two types of orthopedic appliances used in skeletal class II
A) Headgear ( extra-oral force)
B) Functional appliances ( Removable and fixed )
It delivers an extra-oral orthopedic force to compress the maxillary sutures and modify the pattern of bone apposition at these sites.
2 TYPES
Facebow J-Hooks
(maxillary excess ) (Maxillary anterior retraction)
and intrusion
A- Headgear:
(cervical)-Distal and extrusive forces on maxillary mollars . (occipital)-posterior and inferior extra-oral force -Distal and intrusive forces on the
maxillary molar - extra-oral force is directed
superior and posterior -Increases vertical dimension -A-P and Vertical maxillary excess
( decreases V.D) - used in A-P maxillary excess with flat mand,plane
B- Functional appliances:
Class II functional appliances are designed to position the mandible in a downward and forward to enhance its mandibular growth pattern.
Indication: Mandibular deficiency Removable Functional: Fixed
Functional: -Activator -Herbst - Bionator -Jasper jumper -Twin bloc - Frankyl II
2) Dental Camouflage: It is a treatment that seeks to create a dental compensation to hide the skeletal
discrepancy Maxillary Retroclination and Mandibular Protraction.Indicated: 1) Adults 2) Mild to Moderate skeletal Class II cases 3) Minimal dental crowding . 4) Acceptable facial esthetics 5) Usually requires extraction Dental camouflage without extraction is rare in case of skeletal class
II -Mild skeletal class II cases - Mild excessive overjet - Adequate space available - Max Molar distalization
3) Orthognathic surgery: A combination of orthodontic therapy and Orthognathic surgery for
the correction of moderate to severe skeletal class II malocclusion (Adults, no growth potential)
Indicated:
1) Moderate to Severe skeletal discrepancy 2) Facial imbalances or asymmetries: long lower face , Gummy smile 3) Limitations of tooth movement : Upright on basal bone 4) Relapse potential of orthodontic treatment. 5) Severe crowding and protrusion in the dental arches with skeletal class
II malocclusion (extraction space is not sufficient to correct buccal occlusion)
Surgical correction includes: 1) Mandibular Advancment: Indicated: skeletal class II cases with mandibular deficiency
The intraoral sagittal split ramus osteotomy is the most popular technique for surgical mandibular advancment.
2) Maxillary Impaction: ( Le Fort 1 maxillary osteotomy )
Indicated: Vertical Maxillary excess
Maxillary Impaction may include 1)Total maxillary osteotomy ( maxillary excess ant. and post.) 2) Bilateral posterior segmental maxillary osteotomy ( excess
localized posterior)
Vertical maxillary excess in the anterior and posterior region of
maxilla
Requires maxillary impaction by a total maxillary ostoetomy .
To correct the: 1) Gummy smile 2) excessive lower facial height 3) incompetent lips 4) mandible will rotate anti-clock
wise
- Anterior Maxillary sub-apical setback Indicated: Maxillary excess is in A-P
dimension/ Mid-face protrusion ( No vertical excess)
- Combined Surgical approaches : Indicated: Maxillary excess (vertical or
A-P) combined with mandibular deficiency.
Moderate class II malocclusions are usually associated with mandibular deficiency or maxillary excess Resulting in a compromised facial esthetics.
The choice between orthognathic surgery or orthodontics as a treatment option might be confusing to the orthodontist in borderline cases.
