ABSTRACT

Camouflage orthodontic treatment is an acceptable option for mild to moderate skeletal discrepancies for correcting the malocclussion and at the same time the skeletal problem. In this article, a case report of a camouflage orthodontic treatment in a skeletal class III patient with anterior crossbite, bilateral molar class III, bilateral non assessable canine class and absence of an upper canine is presented. The aim of this article is to show that orthodontic camouflage is an acceptable treatment option on the daily practice for mild skeletal discrepancies that offers esthetic results in the soft tissues as well as the correction of the maloclussion.
