Here, we report a camouflage treatment of a 23-year-old female patient. She was diagnosed with a skeletal Class II malocclusion with extreme high mandibular plane angle, retrusive mandible, steep posterior occlusal plane, anterior open bite, and severe overjet. The treatment plan included extraction of all second premolars and intrusion of the maxillary anterior teeth and mandibular posterior teeth using miniscrews. These contributed to an effective counterclockwise rotation of the mandible, decreased lower face height, and improvement in anterior overbite. This case report shows a vertical control strategy on severe hyperdivergent skeletal Class II malocclusions, which achieves well-controlled sagittal and vertical dimensions and a favorable facial appearance. The treatment and retention results were well balanced and aesthetically pleasing.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina58091217","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,6]],"date-time":"2022-09-06T22:33:01Z","timestamp":1662503581000},"page":"1217","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Vertical Control of a Severe Hyperdivergent Skeletal Class II Malocclusion with Steep Posterior Occlusal Plane in a Camouflage Case"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Yun","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Shanghai Stomatological Hospital & School of Stomatology, Fudan University, Shanghai 200001, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Weihua","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Shanghai Stomatological Hospital & School of Stomatology, Fudan University, Shanghai 200001, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5385-7452","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bingjiao","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Shanghai Stomatological Hospital & School of Stomatology, Fudan University, Shanghai 200001, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuehua","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, Shanghai Stomatological Hospital & School of Stomatology, Fudan University, Shanghai 200001, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"84","DOI":"10.1016\/S1010-5182(87)80024-0","article-title":"Long face: New proposals for taxonomy, diagnosis, treatment","volume":"15","author":"Merville","year":"1987","journal-title":"J.
