Orthodontic treatment to establish patient's bite and give patient a beautiful smile

Anterior open bite is considered one of the most difficult conditions to treat in orthodontics.

Proper diagnosis, treatment planning and retention protocol are very critical in the long-term stability of open bite treatment.
