Which statement best describes Class II Division II?

Mandible protruded and maxillary incisors protruded. Mandible retruded and maxillary incisors retruded. Mandible retruded and maxillary incisors protruded.

Correct Answer:

Mandible retruded and maxillary incisors retruded.

Explanation:

Class II Division II is defined by a Class II molar relationship with the upper front teeth tipped backward. The upper incisors, especially the central ones, are retroclined (tilted toward the tongue), and the lower jaw is typically retruded relative to the upper jaw. This combination often results in a deep bite and a reduced or even negative overjet, setting it apart from Division I where the upper incisors are usually proclined. So the statement describing both a retruded mandible and retroclined maxillary incisors best captures this pattern.
