Abstract
ABSTRACT
This case report presents the treatment of a 8
years and 4 months old girl who had skeletal Class III
malocclusion with 3 mm negative overjet and 3 mm
overbite and a narrow maxilla using functional
regulator of Frankel (FR III). Without fixed appliance
application, prominent profile improvement and ideal
overjet and overbite were all obtained as a result of
18 months Frankel Treatment alone. These changes
were maintained at 3,5 years after treatment. This
case report indicates that successful outcomes may be
achieved with FR III application in patients with Class
III malocclusion in the early mixed dentition period.
