Treatment of Class III malocclusion using miniscrew-anchored inverted Forsus FRD: Controlled clinical trial.

CONCLUSIONS: The use of miniscrew-anchored inverted FRD could effectively increase maxillary forward growth, but it did not prevent mesial movement of the maxillary dentition. Significant lower incisor retroclination was observed. Significant esthetic improvement of the facial profile was achieved primarily because of lower lip retrusion and upper lip protrusion.
