Introduction: class III dentoskeletal malocclusion has been considered throughout history as one of the most striking malocclusions due to the facial deformity it can provoke. Making it one of the most complex and difficult orthodontic problems to be diagnosed and treated.
Clinical case: an eight-year-old mixed race female patient, who attended the orthodontic service at Ormani Arenado Llonch Dentistry Clinic for presenting dental deformity and a history of inheritance, she maintained the milk bottle habit until the three years of age, where lingual thrust still persists, molar relationship of mesiocclusion, a poor relationship of the bony bases with an inverted bilabial closure were also observed. A therapeutic modality that included a clinical and cephalometric diagnosis was chosen with the subsequent orthodontic treatment, using a facial mask for the correction of the occlusion anomalies.
Conclusions: a clinical case of class III malocclusion was presented at the beginning of the permanent dentition and with the use of facial mask the function was achieved, along with the restoration of aesthetics.
