To know the relationship of morphological variation of sella turcica (ST) with Class II malocclusion. The sample in this study were 100 lateral cephalometric radiographs divided into two groups Class I and Class II skeletal malocclusion based on the ANB value, each group was randomized and identified by morphology of ST and later compared with the value ANB from each group. The findings of this study indicate a significant difference between morphological variation of ST in Class I and class II malocclusion. The normal morphology of ST was observed in, 68% of Class I and 12% of Class II skeletal malocclusion subjects. Irregular (notching) of the posterior wall was higher in Class II malocclusion (26%) and in Class I malocclusion, it was only 8%. To distinguish between normal and atypical appearances, the orthodontist should be conversant with the various morphologies of the ST.
