Abstract:
Patients with deep bites or crossbites often need temporary bite opening to prevent mandibular brackets from being sheared off and to allow unobstructed tooth movement. Here we present a simple auxiliary occlusal extension for temporary bite opening to correct an anterior crossbite. The bite plane is hygienic, less intrusive to the tongue space and prevents supra-eruption of the adjacent as well as opposing teeth.
