Several treatment options are reported in the literature to inhibit the mechanical factors that maintain the anterior open bite. The gold standard treatment of skeletal anterior open bite cases is the combined approach of orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances and orthognathic surgery. Myofunctional therapy is considered a very good option to oral muscular patterns reeducation. It seems very effective in reducing occlusal relapses, but it needs time and cooperation. It seems that oral muscular reeducation could improve general posture correction, but dental scientific literature lacks researches on the effects of occlusal changing on vertebral position. The Authors present an open bite case in an adult, where oral reeducation, made by an intraoral device, corrected occlusion and improved general posture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
