Long-term stability of anterior open bite extraction treatment in the permanent dentition
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2004
The purpose of this study was to cephalometrically evaluate the long-term stability of anterior open bite extraction treatment in the permanent dentition after a mean period of 8.35 years. Cephalometric headfilms were obtained at pretreatment, posttreatment, and postretention stages from 31 patients who had undergone orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances. Two control groups were used. The first, with an age similar to that of the experimental group before treatment, was used only to characterize it. The second, with normal occlusion, was followed longitudinally for a period comparable with the posttreatment period and was used to compare changes during this period. The differences between the observation stages in the experimental group were analyzed with paired t tests, and the posttreatment changes were compared with the changes of the second control group with independent t tests. There was no statistically significant decrease of the obtained anterior overbite at the end of the posttreatment period. The primary factors that contributed to the nonsignificant decrease of the overbite were the normal vertical development of the maxillary and mandibular incisors, the smaller vertical development of the mandibular molars, and the consequent smaller increase in lower anterior face height, as compared with the control group in the long-term posttreatment period. Additionally, 74.2% of the sample had a "clinically stable" open bite correction. (Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2004;125:78-87)
Stability of anterior open-bite extraction and nonextraction treatment in the permanent dentition
American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, 2006
This study cephalometrically evaluated the long-term stability of anterior open bite nonextraction treatment in the permanent dentition after a mean period of 5 years. The experimental group consisted of 21 patients who had undergone orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances from whom cephalometric headfilms were obtained at the pretreatment, posttreatment, and postretention stages. Two control groups were used. The first, with ages comparable with the experimental group before treatment, was used only to characterize it. The second control group, with normal occlusion, was longitudinally followed for a period comparable with the posttretention period and was used to compare the changes between groups during this period. The differences between the observation stages in the experimental group were analyzed with paired t tests, and the postretention changes were compared with the changes of the second control group with independent t tests. A statistically significant decrease of the obtained anterior overbite was demonstrated at the end of the postretention period. The primary factor that contributed to the overbite decrease was the smaller vertical development of the maxillary and mandibular incisors in the postretention period. Neither the pretreatment anterior open bite amount nor the magnitude of correction was associated with the long-term overbite decrease. However, 61.9% of the sample had a clinically stable open bite correction. (Am J Orthod Dentofacial Orthop 2003;124:265-76)
Posterior tooth angulations in patients with anterior open bite and normal occlusion
Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare the posterior tooth angulations in patients with open-bite malocclusion and normal occlusion. Methods: Lateral cephalometric headfilms of 45 untreated open-bite subjects were compared with the lateral headfilms of 45 subjects with normal occlusion in the permanent dentition. The groups were matched for age and sex distribution and compared with t tests. Results: The maxil-lary and mandibular premolars were more mesially angulated in relation to the bisected occlusal plane, and the first and second molars were significantly more distally angulated in the open-bite group in relation to the palatal and mandibular planes. Conclusions: The maxillary and mandibular premolars were more mesially angulated in relation to the bisected occlusal plane and therefore do not compensate for the divergence of the palatal and mandibular planes as the molars do.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of first premolar extraction with different anchorages as well as non-extraction on mandibular third molar angulation. Materials and methods: The pretreatment (T1) and posttreatment (T2) panoramic radiographs of one hundred patients from Hamadan (Iran), who underwent fixed orthodontic treatment were investigated and the angle between long axis of right mandibular third molars and a constructed horizontal plan (HRP) was measured. The sample was equally divided into four groups including first premolar extraction with maximum anchorage, that with moderate anchorage, that with minimum anchorage and non-extraction group. Results: In the first premolar extraction groups with moderate and minimum anchorages, third molar angulation increased (8.12 and 7.48 , respectively) significantly from T1 to T2 (P = 0.001 and 0.003, respectively), but in the first premolar extraction group with maximum anchorage and non-extraction group, increase in third molar angulation (2.84 and 0.8 , respectively) was not statistically significant (P = 0.082 and 0.943, respectively). Third molar uprighting was significantly
Influence of treatment including second molars on final and postretention molar angulation
Dental Press Journal of Orthodontics, 2013
OBJECTIVE: Evaluate axial mesiodistal inclinations of the mandibular molars in orthodontically treated cases, analyzing whether inclusion of second mandibular molars in treatment mechanics has any influence on final and postretention molars angulations. METHODS: The sample comprised 150 panoramic radiographs of 50 patients. Patients were treated with extraction of four first premolars and divided into 2 groups: Group 1 comprised 25 subjects without inclusion of mandibular second molars during orthodontic treatment, whereas Group 2 comprised 25 subjects with inclusion of mandibular second molars. Panoramic radiographs at three observation times were evaluated: pretreatment, posttreatment and postretention. The statistical analysis included one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) for intragroup evaluation and independent t-tests for intergroup comparisons. RESULTS: Intragroup analysis demonstrated significant uprighting of mandibular first and second molars during treatment in Group 2, w...
Nonsurgical treatment of skeletal anterior open bite in adult patients: Posterior build-ups
The Angle Orthodontist, 2016
Objective: To (1) evaluate the efficacy of build-ups in the correction of anterior open bite in adults, (2) evaluate their efficacy in producing molar intrusion, (3) analyze skeletal and dental changes, and (4) assess the long-term stability. Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 93 lateral cephalograms from 31 patients with skeletal and dental anterior open bite. The patients had received orthodontic treatment consisting of bonded resin blocks on the maxillary molars combined with Tip-Edge Plus bracket appliances. Cephalometric measurements were performed on radiographs taken before treatment (T1), after treatment (T2), and after a retention period (T3), which were analyzed and compared. Results: Significant dental and skeletal changes were observed after treatment. Molar intrusion averaging 1 mm; 1.44 and 1.57 mm extrusion of mandibular and maxillary incisors, respectively; and a mean of 3.98 mm overbite increase were observed. The mandibular plane angle showed a mean clo...

The mandibular third molar (3M) is the tooth that is most often impacted, with lack of space being one of the reasons. In some orthodontic treatments, premolars are extracted in order to create space. The aims of our study are: firstly, to assess the changes in the angulation and position of the 3M in cases treated either with or without extraction of the first or second premolars; secondly, to analyse the variation in the gonial angle and the degree of inclusion of the 3M; and lastly, to establish a predictive impaction model for 3M. This study included 88 patients: 28 patients treated with extractions of first premolars, 30 with second premolars and 30 without. The initial and final orthopantomography was analysed and the angulation of the 3M was measured, a new variable being created to determine the degree of 3M inclusion in the mandibular ramus. The results show that the angulation of 3M improves with time, regardless of treatment, and presents a greater disinclusion in cases treated with extractions. The gonial angle tends to diminish with age in all cases. The conclusions suggest that other factors may influence the angulation and position of 3M and that it is not possible to establish a predictive impaction model.
