Objective This study investigates the differences in condylar position between centric relation（CR） and maximum intercuspation（MI） in Angle’s Class Ⅱ orthodontic patients before treatment. Methods 80 cases, who were Angle’s Class Ⅱ pretreatment patients, and 50 cases, who were normal（ideal） occlusion were accepted. Dental casts were mounted on Panadent articulator with CR bite record, taken by bilateral manipulation and load testing. The differences in condylar position between CR and MI in all three spatial planes were measured using the Panadent condylar position indication（CPI）. Results 1）The positive rate of CR-MI discrepancy was 92.50%（74 cases） in the group of Angle’s Class Ⅱ malocclusion and 10.00%（5 cases） in the group of normal occlusion（P
