Vertical bite defects – Deep bite
The deep bite is classified as vertical bite defects. This is a defect that is characterized by excessive vertical bite, which means that the upper teeth overlap on the lower teeth more than it does in patients with normal teeth. The vertical bite can be so deep that the upper teeth, instead of only contacting the opposing teeth, contact the gums, which can lead to serious periodontological problems.
Patients with second-grade Angle type one
Deep bite – occurrence
Excessive vertical bite can accompany any weight. The slight and moderate form of deep bite very slightly affectthe features of the patient's face, only a large severity of the disorder can worsen the external appearance. Most often, deep bite meets in second-class orthodontic defects by. Angle'a
Patients with second-grade Angle type two
There are many strategies for treating deep bites. Methods of treatment of excessive vertical bite include:
- Tooth intruder in the anxinersection
- Increase in dental and uphearial height in the rear section
- Reduce vertical bite by swatheof the upper teeth
Tooth intruder in the anxinersection
Tooth intruder is a good way to eliminate excessive vertical bites used in adolescent and adult patients. Intrusicity of the upper or lower teeth is considered a stable method of correcting this type of orthodontic defect. This method of treatment involves providing strength that is designed to push the teeth into the bone. The decision to push the upper or lower arc should be taken on the basis of aesthetic considerations. If the position of the upper lip at rest causes excessive exposure of the gums, it is advisable to push the teeth in the upper arch. The exposure of the seed teeth is getting smaller with age, so the treatment of orthodontist should take into account aesthetic conditions when tinking.
Increase in dental and uphearial height in the rear section
Eliminating deep biteby increasing the height of the back tooth section seems like a very good strategy. The above procedure not only improves the bite, but also favorably affects facial features. Unfortunately, the size of chewing forces makes the extruding of the hind teeth a high tendency to relapse. The method of increasing the altitude of the dental and upular segment may be used in patients in the early development period. The extrusion of the hind teeth in adults is considered unstable.
Reduce vertical bite by tooth swathe
Tooth swath is a very efficient and easy way to treat deep bite. This is a technique that can be useful when correcting excessive bite in patients who, in addition to deep bite, also show an impromptu tilt of the sieve teeth. Treatment in the above way orthodontate must always carry out with extraordinary precision, because tooth tilting is qualified for dental movements with low stability.
Bite / bite – correct
