Bimaxillary protrusion is a unique dentofacial deformity trait that can exist in an individual as an isolated problem or in combination with other skeletal and dental-related issues. Orthodontist and oral and maxillofacial surgeons are often the main primary team involved in the management of bimaxillary protrusion. Clinical dilemma often exists as cases can either be treated orthodontically or may require a combination of orthodontic and skeletal segmental orthognathic surgery. This article aims to help clinicians improve their approach to management of bimaxillary protrusion by creating a classification based on the severity that can guide treatment selection.
