Class III malocclusion needs complex orthodontic treatment. This case report describes a 16-year-old male patient with skeletal class III malocclusion with a negative overjet and overbite. Upper incisors were proclined with the accentuated curve of Wilson. Treatment has changed the functional curve of Wilson that has improved functional dynamic occlusion. The patient was treated using a Carriere (R) Motion (TM) Class III (CM3) and SLX 3D Brackets system. After a 25-month treatment, the patient reached class I molars and canines relationships on both sides with good facial aesthetics and good functional occlusion. The result was also satisfactory for the patient. A one-year follow-up confirmed that the outcome was stable.

Upper incisors were proclined with the accentuated curve of Wilson. Treatment has changed the functional curve of Wilson that has improved functional dynamic occlusion. The patient was treated using a Carriere (R) Motion (TM) Class III (CM3) and SLX 3D Brackets system. After a 25-month treatment, the patient reached class I molars and canines relationships on both sides with good facial aesthetics and good functional occlusion. The result was also satisfactory for the patient.
