ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cephalometric skeletal, dental and soft tissue characteristics in class II division 2 malocclusion in the sagittal and vertical dimensions. Lateral cephlaograms of 60 patients for both genders [30 class I and 30 class II/2] were used to determine the characteristics of class II div 2 malocclusion and were compared with control group class I patients. The data base was developed in SPSS 16 for windows. In sagittal plane, mandible was retrognathic in class II/2 malocclusion and demonstrated significantly reduced measurements in vertical plane, indicative of a skeletal deep bite. Upper incisors were significantly retroclined while lower incisors were normally inclined. Both upper and lower lips were protrusive
