Twenty studies including a total of 1,807 participants were selected following a systematic search of nine databases. The findings indicate that the aetiology of Class II subdivision is multifactorial, involving dental, skeletal and functional components, with a clear predominance of dental asymmetries. Skeletal and condylar asymmetries are present in a smaller proportion of cases and are often subtle, while functional factors such as mandibular shifts may contribute to the clinical presentation. Advanced imaging techniques, including CBCT and 3D imaging, allow more accurate detection of asymmetries compared to conventional two-dimensional methods. In conclusion, accurate and individualized diagnosis is essential, and three-dimensional imaging should be reserved for complex cases or when skeletal involvement is suspected.</p> Class II subdivision, aetioloy Class II subdivision, diagnosis Dewey 617.6 Mémoire de Maîtrise de fin d’études prégraduées universitaires en médecine dentaire 209 Division d'orthodontie 24Q1 false a9f4142a-26ab-4d93-8bc8-f8585ab3038b Master thesis Restricted 1._manuscript_template_PRISMA_Class.pdf 412882 application/pdf bc08e99501d6d66357dcbb7539b605bbac0fe215fbcf046c54442e03c1368efc 50b60cf2-fe1e-4284-8197-0840073665ca Master thesis Restricted 2._Class_II_subdivision_diagnosis_s.pdf 497457 application/pdf Annexe 1 2c345cada04951d3039ccb7e80832a0ad42bfb79c87cb636907ec672dc9d90fe 840f0f90-a2e1-4e74-ba4c-b7179a97c35c Master thesis Restricted 3._Supplementary_Table_5._Class_II_.pdf 181354 application/pdf Annexe 2 af8bb8aa97b7681c590f5eaad5f0004da42744c8ffea797e0dfb5804fdf3f5d0 restrictedAccess Faculté de médecine / Section de médecine dentaire / Département de réhabilitation oro-faciale / Division d'orthodontie
