Orthotropics therapy is a treatment philosophy focused on correct growth guidance that promotes the proper development of orofacial structures. Objective: To evaluate longterm cephalometric vertical and sagittal skeletal values in patients with Class II skeletal relationship treated with this therapy. Materials and methods: 150 cephalometric radiographs were measured with the RadiAnt™ Dicom Viewer program in 3 times in 50 patients, 30 treated with Orthotropics and 20 in a Control Group. (CG). For the vertical values, the mandibular plane angle (N-S-GoMe), gonial angle (Ar-Go-Me), Y axis angle (N-S-Gn), anteroinferior facial height (AIFH) and the height of the mandibular ramus (Ar-Go) were measured. To estimate the sagittal values, the angle SNA, SNB, ANB and the length of the mandibular body (Go-Gn) were assessed. Descriptive statistical analysis was applied (mean and standard deviation). The Student's T, Mann-Whitney U, ANOVA and Friedman tests were used for the bivariate analyses. Results: In the comparison between times, statistically significant values of long-term skeletal values were found in Orthotropics therapy for all the parameters, except for SNA; and in the CG in Ar-Go-Me, AFAI, Ar-Go, ANB and Go-Gn. Conclusions: Statistically significant differences were found between Orthotropics and GC at T0, T1 and T2 in the parameters AFAI, Ar-Go, ANB and Go-Gn; with higher values in the GC.
