Abstract:
This case presents a novel application of adhesive technology to treat a deep traumatic overbite in a patient unable to tolerate a removable appliance. Cast metal shelves were bonded into palatal surfaces of the upper anterior teeth. Three lower incisors required post crowns which were proclined slightly to engage the palatal stops of the upper teeth. After 24 months the palatal stops were firm and the occlusion seemed stable.
