Deep traumatic overbite in adults can be managed restoratively. A case report shows fixed and removable restorations offer a satisfactory solution for partially dentate patients unwilling to undergo orthodontics or surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Restorative Dentistry
  • Dental Prosthetics

Background:

  • Deep overbite is a common condition in adult dentition.
  • It can be asymptomatic but may lead to deep traumatic overbite due to factors like posterior occlusal support loss in partially dentate patients.

Observation:

  • Adult patients with deep overbite may be unwilling to undergo orthodontic or orthognathic surgery.
  • A partially dentate adult patient presented with a deep traumatic overbite.

Findings:

  • A restorative approach using a combination of fixed and removable restorations was employed.
  • This approach provided a satisfactory solution for the patient's deep traumatic overbite.

Implications:

  • Restorative management offers a viable alternative for patients who decline traditional orthodontic or surgical treatments.

  • This approach highlights the potential of prosthodontics in managing complex occlusal issues in adults.
  • Further investigation into restorative solutions for deep overbite is warranted.
