title: [Open bite: orthodontic prosthetic surgical treatment. Presentation of a case].
abstract: A patient with anterior open bite is studied. Treatment and technique selected for the surgical correction of his deformity is described. It is stated that on account to the socialist character of our medical assistance, this treatment is within reach of any patient requiring it. Finally, emphasis is made on the fact that control after surgery is as important as a right selection and performance of the technique used for the prevention of relapses.
