Treatment of Class III dentofacial deformities present a complex clinical challenge. This article demonstrates the successful surgical-orthodontic rehabilitation of two patients with skeletal Class III deformities. Meticulously planned and well-executed conventional combination of presurgical orthodontics, orthognathic surgery and postsurgical orthodontic therapy helped optimally achieve an aesthetic facial profile, pleasing smile and well-interdigitated occlusion. The results showed excellent stability at 3-year follow-up in both cases. Various clinical criteria and protocol crucial for realization of stable aesthetic, structural and functional outcomes are also discussed.
