A 28-year-old woman presented with a cross bite and the inability to incise food; she had no history of trauma or serious illness. She was diagnosed with a skeletal Class III malocclusion and crowded teeth. The left mandibular first molar showing an inappropriate root canal treatment was extracted and the left mandibular third molar was implanted into the first molar extraction space. She was treated with conventional fixed edgewise appliance therapy combined with orthognathic surgery (sagittal split ramus osteotomy). The mandibular prognathism was eliminated. The transplanted tooth remains stable more than 5 years after the procedure.}, pages = {161--166}, title = {Orthodontic and Orthognathic Surgical Correction of a Skeletal Class III Malocclusion}, volume = {30}, year = {} }
