# First to classify malocclusion on structural basis:
A. Salzmann
B. Kingsley
C. Angle
D. Katz
The correct answer is A. Salzmann.
Salzmann in 1950 was the first to classify malocclusion based on skeletal structures.
• Skeletal Class I: These are purely dental malocclusions. The jaws are in harmony with one another. The profile is orthognathic.
• Skeletal Class II: Subnormal and distal mandibular development in relation to maxilla
• Skeletal Class III: Overgrowth of the mandible with a prognathic mandible.
