Introduction: The purpose of this study is to compare dental and skeletal differences between Class I and Class II sides and their contributions to the degree of asymmetric molar relationship in Class II subdivision malocclusions using CBCT.

Methods: One hundred and eight patients presenting with Angle Class II subdivision malocclusions (mean age =21.05 years) were assessed with 3-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography scans. Paired t-tests were used to compare linear skeletal, angular and dental measurement differences between Class I and Class II sides. Correlations of linear skeletal, angular and dental measurement differences between Class I and Class II sides were made …
