CLINICAL CASE

Open bite

In some patients, contact of the anterior teeth does not occur, favoring the overload and wear of the posterior teeth. The most common causes of this condition are related to childhood habits such as "thumb sucking" or putting the tongue between these teeth when swallowing, which we commonly call atypical swallowing.
The treatment of this malocclusion involves the use of invisalign aligners and the correction of the habit with the help of speech therapists.

Before and after treatment

In this 24-year-old patient with an anterior open bite, we were able to close the space by using invisalign aligners in a period of 18 months.

At Clinica Pronova, we offer different types of dental implant treatments
