Abstract
Skeletal Class III therapy of the two siblings with a protraction headgear was reported. The treatment result indicated that skeletal and dental malocclusion could be achieved by redirection of maxillary and mandibular growth with force system comprising 400 grams maxillary protraction and 1000 grams mandibular retraction when the treatment was performed at the appropriate time.
