Abstract

Anterior open bite is defined as the lack of contacts between the functional occluding teeth on vertical line at centric occlusion and classified into functional and skeletal anterior open bite based on its causes and characteristics. In mixed dentition, habit control and the elimination of abnormal perioral muscle function and moving the vertical direction development to the sagittal direction of the mandible by the functional appliance is a goal of treatment.
This study presents the effective interception of oral habit by the tongue crib and functional-fixed treatment and treatment response of open bite related to tongue thrust habit.
