The clinical features of class II malocclusion are increased overjet, anterior crowding, upper molar distalization. These clinical features can lead to greater impact on oral cavity. Dental plaque has been found to cause periodontal disease, and it is more difficult to remove plaque from teeth that are malaligned. Periodontal disease such as early loss and periodontal pockets which is the major problem found in class II malocclusion patients. Orthodontic treatment is sought by patients for various reasons, the most common being the correction of malaligned anterior teeth to enhance esthetics.
