Abstract
A lot of treatment options are available to treat a young individual with class III malocclusion. Most of them aim at correcting the maxillary deficiency and hardly any changes are seen in mandible. Moreover, most of the treatments are time consuming. This case report discuss a treatment option for three children between the age group of 8 to 10 years having class III malocclusion, with reverse twin block and facemask. The treatment outcomes were effective and the duration was shorter.
