Anterior open bite correction with Invisalign has been claimed to have relatively good predictability because of the proposed function of clear aligners to function as occlusal bite-blocks, limiting e...
A retrospective study used pretreatment and posttreatment intraoral scans and predicted outcomes (ClinCheck) stereolithography files of 76 adult patients from private specialist orthodontic practices....
Approximately 66.2% of the programmed open bite closure was expressed compared with the prescribed ClinCheck outcome. The use of posterior occlusal bite-blocks and prescribed movement of teeth via ant...
The prescribed bite closure in ClinCheck software overestimates the bite closure that is clinically achieved....
This study aimed to assess the different pathways between predictor factors such as zygosity, atypical swallowing, mouth breathing, breastfeeding and bottle feeding related to anterior open bite (AOB)...
The study was conducted in monozygotic (MZ) and dizygotic (DZ) twin children aged 3-15 years. AOB, atypical swallowing, mouth breathing, feeding type, duration of bottle use, and mouth opening status ...
A total of 404 children (29.2% MZ;70.8% DZ) participated in this study. The effect of zygosity on mouth breathing in the PLS-SEM model was statistically significant. Conversely, it was determined that...
The PLS-SEM model showed that mouth breathing triggers atypical swallowing and atypical swallowing triggers AOB. As a result of this chain of relationships, an indirect effect of zygosity on AOB was o...
This study identified the relationships between different factors and the presence of AOB. The findings of this study demonstrate in detail the relationships between AOB and zygosity, atypical swallow...
This study aimed to examine the stability of anterior open bite (AOB) treatment with clear aligners....
This retrospective cohort study included 52 adult AOB patients (aged >18 years; 15 males, 37 females) who underwent nonextraction clear aligner treatment and were at least 1 year posttreatment. Eleven...
The mean retention period was 2.1 ± 1.1 years. The mean change in overbite during treatment was 3.3 ± 1.5 mm; 6% of patients presented relapse at least 1 year after treatment completion. The mean chan...
AOB was successfully corrected in all 52 patients using only clear aligners with no additional adjunctive aids such as microimplants. When retained with maxillary and mandibular fixed retainers and ma...
In orthodontics, anterior open bite is a common malocclusion that recurs frequently. Because the causes of anterior open bite are so varied, medical professionals must create customized treatment prog...
This case report aims to describe an orthodontic camouflage treatment of a 15-year-old female patient with anterior open bite, arch width discrepancy and a history of temporomandibular joint disorder....
Our results demonstrated that more attention should be paid to levelling the occlusal plane, intrusion of the molars, decompression of temporomandibular joints and the etiology factors of malocclusion...
Skeletal anterior open bite (SAOB) represents one of the most complex and challenging malocclusions in orthodontics. Orthodontic treatment supported by miniplates enable to reduce the need for orthogn...
A total of 32 patients of both sexes, with an average age of 33.8 years, diagnosed with SAOB and treated orthodontically with four miniplates (one in each hemiarch), were selected for this study. Tomo...
Among the evaluated parameters, the maxillary alveolar width, maxillary dental cusp width, mandibular alveolar cusp width, and intermolar angle showed statistically significant differences between T1 ...
Intrusion and distalization with miniplates in SAOB therapy may lead to significant expansive changes, due to molars cusps width and buccal inclination increase restricted at the alveolar level....
Short root anomaly is a rare dental disorder affecting tooth root development. It is characterized by reduced root-to-crown ratios (1:1 or less) and rounded apices. The short roots introduce a potenti...
The etiology of open bite is complex, involving various genetic or environmental factors. Several treatment alternatives have been suggested for the correction of open bite, yet their long-term effect...
To assess the long-term effectiveness of open-bite treatment in treated with non-surgical approaches versus untreated patients, through lateral cephalometric radiographs....
Unrestricted search of 16 electronic databases and manual searches up to November 2022....
Randomized or non-randomized controlled trials reporting on the long-term effects of open-bite treatment through angular lateral cephalometric variables....
Only angular variables on lateral cephalometric radiographs were considered as primary outcomes. For each outcome, the mean differences and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using the random-ef...
From the initially identified 26,527 hits, only 6 studies (1 randomized and 5 retrospective controlled trials) were finally included in this systematic review reporting on 244 open-bite individuals (1...
According to existing evidence, the influence of non-surgical treatment of open bite on the skeletal tissues and the inclination of the incisors is rather minimal in the long term, while only the naso...
Clear aligners are reported to control anterior open bites. Despite this, anterior extrusion remains difficult with aligners. Optimized extrusion attachments on incisors may facilitate anterior extrus...
This was a retrospective cohort study. The pre- and post-treatment intraoral scans of patients with anterior open bite treated with Invisalign aligners were assessed. Patients were divided into two gr...
A total of 86 patients were included. Both groups showed significant increases in overbite, but there was no difference in the open bite correction efficacy in patients with conventional versus optimi...
Anterior open bite can be corrected regardless of the attachment type. Optimized attachments are no more effective than using conventional attachments in incisor extrusion to correct open bite. Patien...
This study aimed to compare treatment efficacy and cephalometric outcomes between extraction and non-extraction MEAW therapies in non-growing open-bite patients....
22 Multiloop Edgewise Archwire MEAW patients (11 males, 11 females) and 15 bicuspid extraction patients (3 males, 12 females) were selected according to a strict inclusion criterion. Comprehensive dat...
The mean change in open bite closure was 3.07 ± 2.07 mm in the MEAW group and 3.03 ± 2.28 mm in the extraction group (P > 0.05). MEAW therapy was 31% faster (118 weeks) than extraction therapy (171 we...
In anterior open bite cases with bicuspid extraction, achieving a positive overbite typically involves retroclining and uprighting the upper and lower incisors (drawbridge effect). In contrast, the ME...
The MEAW appliance's biomechanical advantage in uprighting posterior teeth in open bite cases may shorten treatment duration for correcting open bite malocclusion....
The use of lingual spurs has been described as one efficient option, with great stability of results, but with scarce information of toleration for use in the mixed and permanent dentition phases....
The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of lingual spurs on the oral health-related quality of life of children and/or adolescents during anterior open bite treatment....
The review was recorded in the PROSPERO database. Eight electronic databases and partial gray literature were searched, without restrictions until march 2022. A manual search was also performed in the...
Five studies met the eligibility criteria. Two non-randomized clinical trials had a serious risk of bias. Of the case-series studies, two had a low risk of bias and the other, a moderate risk of bias....
Current evidence, although limited, suggests that lingual spurs have an initial transient negative impact during interceptive treatment. Additional well-conducted randomized clinical trials are needed...
