Open Bite — Front Teeth Now Meet
Anterior open bite • Full arch treatment • Fixed bracesWhat is it?
An open bite means the upper and lower front teeth do not touch when biting — leaving a visible gap even when the mouth is closed. It affects chewing, speech, and smile confidence. This case shows a significant anterior open bite corrected to full, even contact across the whole arch.
How we treat it:
- Full records — X-rays, photographs & study models
- Fixed braces with vertical elastics
- Controlled intrusion & extrusion of teeth
- Retainers worn long-term to maintain bite
