Abstract

Objective: Deep bite malocclusion is one of the most common malocclusions in daily orthodontic practice. Proper biomechanics is used to resolve the variety of skeletal and/or dental discrepancies.
Aim: To present different cases where the choice of treatment is based in part on the etiology of the deep bite, expected growth, the vertical dimension, relationship of the teeth with the adjoining soft tissue structure and the desired position of the occlusal plane.
Material and Methods: Class II division 2 patients, with deep overbite, skeletal Class II, occlusal cant were presented to ilustrate the principles of deep bite cases management.
Results: We corrected the deep overbite by extrusion of the posterior teeth or by intrusion of anterior teeth or by combination of both techniques according to the skeletal, dental and esthetic parameters. At th end of the treatment, good teeth alignment and solid, stable occlusion were established.
Conclusion: With proper biomechanics our treatment contributed for mandibular forward displacement, reduction of deep bite, reduction of facial convexity and profile improvement.
Key words: Deep overbite, extrusion, intrusion, biomechanics.
