Abstract
Mandibular advancement surgery is usually indicated in skeletally mature patients with hypoplastic mandible for restoration of harmonious maxillomandibular relationship in all the three planes apart from improving facial aesthetics, oro-facial functions and overall quality of life. Mandibular advancement is also an effective modality for treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea with minimal incidence of post-operative complications. This case series describes interdisciplinary management of two skeletal Class II cases with hypoplastic mandible and associated Obstructive Sleep Apnea with mandibular advancement surgery. This would help the clinician in diagnosis and treatment planning of such cases
