ABSTRACT: Although functional mandibular deviations are a common clinical issue, their diagnosis and treatment remain challenging. Orthodontic management of these conditions requires a thorough and precise assessment, especially in terms of functional aspects. With careful diagnosis, treatment outcomes can be stable and effective. This article presents a clinical case successfully managed, highlighting the importance of an accurate diagnosis and its direct impact on treatment success. By providing a structured clinical framework, we aim to offer orthodontists a practical guide for addressing lateral functional shifts of the mandible.
