[The therapeutic effects after the dentoalveolar compensation of skeletal open bite in adults. The skeletal and dental parameters].
In the following study 20 adult skeletal open-bite patients were analysed after they had undergone dental compensation to camouflage the underlying skeletal discrepancy. The initial and final cephalometric records were analysed to determine the factors that led to the desired goal. The results showed no significant difference in the skeletal relationship. Molar intrusion was not recorded. The open-bite was correct mostly by reclining the upper incisors and by changing their position. Significant differences existed between the obtained results and the mechano-therapy employed. The geometrical model developed on the of the above makes it possible to predict and predetermine the targeted vertical dimension. Furthermore the results show extrusion of the front teeth as another dominant factor.
