Abstract

Introduction: Due of their complicated origin and extremely high relapse incidence, anterior open bite cases are highly challenging to treat adequately. Treatment options include deterrent appliances, high-pull headgear, fixed appliances with and without extractions, orthognathic surgery, and skeletal anchorage with miniplates or miniscrews, depending on the cause of the anterior open bite malocclusion and the patient's age. Methods and Methods: The combining of fixed appliance orthodontic therapy and orthognathic surgery is the gold standard treatment for skeletal anterior open bite situations. Temporary anchoring devices (TADs), which can be used to close anterior open bites, have been created recently. Orthognathic surgery may be avoided in a few cases of anterior open bite thanks to the development of TAD as a successful therapy option. Conclusion: The anterior open bite closure with TAD is a relatively novel treatment, and there is currently little proof of its long-term stability
