Treatment of anterior deep bite with fixed appliances and microimplants for incisor intrusion – a case report. Dental Forum. 2024;LII(2):70–75. DOI: https://doi.org/10.20883/df.2024.11. Anterior deep bite is a malocclusion characterized by excessive vertical overlap of the maxillary incisors over the mandibular incisors. It often leads to functional and aesthetic concerns, as well as an increased risk of periodontal and temporomandibular joint problems. This case report illustrates the successful treatment of an anterior deep bite using fixed orthodontic appliances and two microimplants for bite correction. The combination of these approaches allowed for significant improvement in both function and appearance, showing the effectiveness of modern orthodontic techniques in managing complex bite problems.
Key words: anterior deep bite, microimplants, miniscrew, incisor intrusion.
