Treatment of Anterior Dental Crossbite in Child with Removable Appliance : A case report
Keywords:
anterior crossbite, removable appliance, interceptive orthodontic treatmentAbstract
Anterior crossbite is defined as the malocclusion that results in the maxilla anterior teeth being positioned behind the mandibular anterior teeth. Anterior crossbite may lead to abrasion of anterior teeth, traumatic occlusion, or gingival recession. Early diagnosis and interceptive orthodontic treatment will reduce the severity of malocclusion in permanent dentition. This case report presents a nine-year-old boy referred for anterior crossbite treatment. Oral examination revealed the anterior crossbite of the upper left central incisor and lower left central incisor with gingival recession. The treatment was managed by a removable appliance with a double cantilever spring and posterior bite plane. After four months, the anterior crossbite was corrected, and periodontal conditions improved. These results indicated that a removable appliance is one of the effective methods used in anterior crossbite treatments.
