Objective is to reveal the presence of any gender differences in the occlusal parameters of Class I and Class II candidates for orthodontic treatment with anterior overbites.

Results. No significant differences between genders in the parameters of (OFR), OT, DT Right, DT Left, Anterior percentage, Anterior/ Posterior Ratio. Female subjects, on average, showed higher DT with a lower Anterior percentage than male subjects (but the differences were not significant). The total group was analyzed based on Angle’s Classification parameter (Class I or Class II). No differences were found between classes, except for the Anterior/Posterior Ratio, which was the only parameter showing a significant difference between classes (p < 0.05).

Conclusions. T-scan data provides valuable descriptive data of Class I and Class II anterior overbite malocclusions and serves as a reference for orthodontic treatment planning.

Key words: Class I malocclusion, Class II malocclusion, Anterior Overbite, T-scan, Anterior/Posterior Ratio.
