Open-bite--a case report (1965-1982). 1983

G R Safirstein, and D J Burton

Successful treatment of severe skeletal open-bite malocclusions has always demanded the utmost of the orthodontist. Long-term evaluation of this type of treatment is not often seen in the literature, for the results have often been disappointing. Combining the best of the surgical and orthodontic disciplines offers these cases an optimistic outlook for the first time. A case treated twice by conventional orthodontic means in 1965 and 1969 was re-treated in 1980 by a surgical orthodontic approach. The results are quite encouraging.
