Introduction  \nClass II malocclusion is among the most prevalent sagittal discrepancies, with an estimated global prevalence of about 20% in the permanent dentition; deep overbite is also frequent, and class II division 2, although less common, is typically associated with retroclined maxillary incisors and a deepbite pattern. [1,2] Within this spectrum, class II subdivision – defined by a unilateral class II relationship and midline deviation toward the class II side – is common and often reflects underlying dentoalveolar and skeletal asymmetries. Contemporary cone beam computed tomography-based studies suggest that subdivision  \npatterns may account for up to half of class II cases and have a reported population prevalence of 12% to 37%, underscoring their clinical relevance and the need for 3-dimensional assessment. [3–5]  \nIn adults with class II division 2 features and deep bite, diagnosis should integrate facial symmetry and midline analysis, occlusal evaluation, and cephalometric measurements, supplemented by cone beam computed tomography when clarification of the center of asymmetry or transverse discrepancies is required. [4,5] Management options include symmetric extractions (4 premolars), asymmetric extraction protocols (e.g., 2 maxillary first premolars plus a mandibular premolar  \nThe authors have no funding and conflicts of interest to disclose.  \nAll data generated or analyzed during this study are included in this published article [and its supplementary information files].  \nWritten informed consent was obtained from the patient, and the patient consented to the publishing of all images and clin","cbCaieCSj6L19UC7","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieCSj6L19UC7","pdf",1305292,"English","# Abstract\n## Keywords\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What orthodontic problems were treated in this case report?\",\"answer\":\"The case involved a skeletal Class II pattern with right-sided subdivision, division-2 incisor inclination, deep bite, increased overjet, moderate crowding, and a 3 mm rightward mandibular midline deviation.\"},{\"question\":\"What was the main treatment approach?\",\"answer\":\"Treatment used an asymmetric 3-premolar extraction protocol—both maxillary first premolars and the mandibular second premolar on the Class II side—combined with controlled incisor mechanics and careful vertical control for bite leveling and asymmetric finishing.\"},{\"question\":\"What outcomes were reported after treatment?\",\"answer\":\"Full alignment was achieved, dental and facial midlines coincided, overjet and overbite were normalized, and smile esthetics plus lip posture improved.
