title: [Cephalometric study of the results of orthodontic treatment of Class III malocclusion].
abstract: It's carried out a research on 60 children, 32 boys and 28 girls, taken from 5-12 of age, affected by Class III malocclusion. All of cases was subdivided in four groups on the ground of the age of orthodontic treatment beginning. Two teleradiographs of each patient were examined, one at the beginning and one at the conclusion of the treatment. About the results reported on the boards, were expressed some considerations on the effects of Class III malocclusions treatment as they result at the cephalometric analysis, in comparison with the starting situation of lack of balance. In every case is pointed out the significance of interception and a more favourable behaviour of cephalometric data in the groups with a earlier beginning of treatment.
