The objective of the study was a comprehensive assessment of cephalometric and 3D morphometric parameters in patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion according to Angle to objectify the degree of skeletal imbalance and substantiate the surgical treatment strategy. An analysis was conducted of sagittal, vertical, and dental cephalometric indicators, as well as the spatial parameters of the jaws and chin area using 3D imaging data. Significant deviations from normative values were identified, characterizing a combination of maxillary retroposition, mandibular prognathism, a vertical hyperdivergent growth pattern, and pronounced dentoalveolar compensation. A high frequency of three-dimensional mandibular asymmetry and chin area hypertrophy has been established, justifying the need for 3D planning of orthognathic treatment.
