The dental biprotrusion characteristic of certain ethnic groups raises the question of treatment or of abstaining. In many situations this is accompanied by open bite in relation to the lingual volume or lingual support during pronunciation, the therapeutic solution must be considered and individualized. This article describes the orthodontic treatment of an anterior open bite of functional origin in a 23-year-old adult patient embarrassed by the cosmetic defect.

Reported case of a 19 years old male, with Class III malocclusion, bilateral cross bite associated with anterior open bite, which was treated by fixed orthodontic treatment. After treatment there was a class I Molar and incisor relation as well as the open bite was corrected with accepted aesthetic and functional satisfaction of the patient.

Deleterious oral habits, such as non-nutritive sucking or tongue thrusting, if not intercepted at an early stage can cause complex malocclusions. This manuscript describes a clinical case report of a successful interception of a severe anterior dental open bite caused by thumb sucking and tongue thrusting habits. The case involved a six-year-old female patient treated with the use of palatal spurs and maxillary removable crib followed by monitoring the development of dental occlusion. At the end of the interceptive phase acceptable results were achieved, showing the efficacy of the treatment undertaken as well the importance of an early intervention to remove harmful oral habits.

ABSTRACT Adult patients with anterior open bite and hyperdivergent retrognathic phenotype demand complex treatments, as premolar extractions, molar intrusion or orthognathic surgery. In the present clinical case, a young adult patient without significant growth, with Class I and anterior open bite, was treated with four premolar extractions. The therapeutic result shows good intercuspation, good facial esthetic, good function balance, and stability in a two-year post-fixed treatment follow-up.

Orthodontic treatment of an anterior open bite is one of the most challenging malocclusions to treat, especially with respect to post-treatment stability. Complete diagnosis and targeted treatment is required for successful post treatment stability. In instances where macroglossia is the primary aetiology, partial glossectomy will greatly improve post treatment stability. The following case report describes a patient with severe anterior open bite and bimaxillary protrusion secondary to macroglossia. Treatment was successfully performed with partial glossectomy and straight wire orthodontics. Post-treatment relapse was minimal. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This article describes a review of the aetiology of anterior open bite and documents one possible treatment option, when the main aetiology of the malocclusion is of soft tissue origin

Anterior open bite is a type of malocclusion in which there is the presence of a negative vertical overlap between the incisal edges of the upper and lower anterior teeth. It is considered a complex anomaly with distinct characteristics and difficult to treat with prevalence of 25% to 38% of patients orthodontically treated. The aim of this article is to report a clinical case of Class III right subdivision and open bite using 3DBOT technique, a fixed, comfortable, predictable, imperceptible technique with 3D technology and with extreme clinically proven satisfaction. Case report: Patient V.B.V.S., 23 years and 1 month old, leukoderma, male, mild dholico, straight profile, symmetrical, Class ¼ of Class III of molar and canine right subdivision, anterior open bite, inverted smile, mild upper and anterior dental crowding. Treatment plan: The use of 3DBOT was planned along with the use of intermaxillary elastics and refinement with the aid of MyAligner® aligners. Conclusion: The 3DBOT technique showed to be a viable option for treating anterior open bite

Abstract An adult male patient who presented with an anterior open bite and a narrow maxilla was treated using a transpalatal distractor (TPD). Transpalatal distraction is a technique for orthopedic maxillary expansion, in which distraction osteogenesis is used. In this technique, the angulation and location of the TPD are critical because they may affect the ratio of skeletal/dental expansion. Any incorrect placement of a TPD may also damage the surrounding blood vessels and premolar roots. This case report introduces a new and easy method for the accurate placement of a TPD using the TPD transporter in an adult patient.

Case report of an adult Bangladeshi male aged 26 years who complained about ineffective chewing of food and unpleasant aesthetic look. The patient was diagnosed to have a 4 mms of anterior dental open bite on skeletal Class I with normal mandibular plane and palatal plane angles. Treatment was orthodontics alone with non-extraction. The main mechanics used to close the anterior open bite, were by the conventional aligning, leveling and arch contraction by standard edgewise technique. The result showed that it was possible to correct the open bite within a short period; however, the appliance was difficult to clean. The treatment was complete after 2 years with positive overbite of 3 mms and acceptable occlusion. The patient was happy with his new appearance and function.
