In this postgraduate certificate in Sagittal Growth Problems and How to Treat Them, the anteroposterior plane of the mandible and its possible malocclusions will be studied, paying special attention to the last spatial plane. 

Therefore, both facial and dental anteroposterior anomalies will be defined to easily identify them and distinguish a sagittal bone problem from a dental one. The relationship between alterations in anteroposterior growth and the lower airways and their treatment will also be discussed, as well as how their treatment can influence the improvement of the air passage volume. 

Likewise, a review of the prevalence of these malocclusions and facial biotypes will be made to check in which population groups one malocclusion or another is more likely to be found. An attempt will also be made to define the etiology of these growth disturbances. 

Angle's classification of malocclusions will be studied, from Class I or normocclusion, in which both the occlusion and the bony bases are in norm, to a Class II malocclusion, both dental and skeletal, and the special features it presents, as well as the appliances indicated for its treatment. This program includes one of the most outstanding sections on the most indicated mandibular advancement appliances for Class II (skeletal), from the most commonly used ones such as the Hebst or Twin-Block, to the most innovative ones such as mandibular advancement with transparent aligners with the Invisalign system. 

Furthermore, the student should also learn to identify skeletal and dental Class III malocclusion, so this malocclusion will be studied in detail with its particularities and its forms of treatment, as well as its limitations, since the treatment of skeletal Class III is the most complex that can be found in their profession. 

Therefore, treatment methods will be explained, from an advanced maxillary traction with facial mask or mandibular growth control with chin rest, to the most effective forms of treatment in combination with surgery, such as the mini plates described by Le Clerk. Finally, habits in this type of malocclusion will be discussed, the effects they can have and the importance of correcting them in order to obtain success in our treatments.
