Abstract
Class III malocclusion with multifactorial etiology manifests with dental or skeletal discrepancies, if severe could lead to compromised facial esthetics and function, thereby decreasing the self-esteem in an individual especially during growing period. Treatment of Class III malocclusion with negative overjet becomes very daunting especially in patients with cessation of growth. Two such cases treated by orthodontic camouflage to produce optimal skeletal and dent alveolar relationship with the help of unilateral extraction of lower 1st premolar, are illustrated in this case report.
