Abstract	Objective: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of Angle Class three Malocclusion in the indigenous ethnic group in the Saraguro and mestizo canton in the city of Loja - Loja Province. Method: The research consisted in collecting a purely clinical sample about the molar relation to people who all six pieces have erupted and in occlusion. This study was carried out under biosecurity standards, followed by the process of taking extra oral photographs to observe the type of facial profile and intraoral photographs to determine the type of occlusion of the patients. People with orthodontic appliances and total removable prostheses were generally discarded, in order to make the sample effective. The occlusion observed was Class three of Angle. Results: In this research it was shown that the indigenous ethnicity obtained 6.0 percent, while the mestiza rated with 2.0 percent of Angle three. In addition, the facial profile emphasizes that Angles class three molar relationship has 8.0 percent of concave profile type in the indigenous and mestizo ethnic groups. In the male genus, 6.0 percent was obtained with Angle three molar ratio whereas in the female genotype we obtained 5.0 percent Angle three molar ratio. Therefore, the age prevalence in the Angle Class three molar ratio was between 17-28 years of age. Conclusions: This study concludes that the indigenous ethnic group presented a 6.00 percent result with Class three occlusion, accompanied by a concave profile, in relation to the mestizo ethnicity.
