Zusammenfassung
Die Korrektur einer stark ausgeprägten Angle Klasse-III-Dysgnathie mit anterior offenem
Biss impliziert in vielen Fällen eine orthognath-chirurgische Therapie. Der vorliegende
Fallbericht stellt eine Patientin vor, der man eine chirurgische Korrektur der zuvor
genannten Dysgnathie vorgeschlagen hat, die Patientin jedoch die Osteotomie ablehnte.
Die orthodontische Korrektur wurde mittels Multiloop-Edgewise-Archwires und kurzen
Klasse-III-Gummizügen durchgeführt. Nach Entfernung aller Weisheitszähne wurde die
Okklusionsebene nach posterior steiler eingestellt. Die aktive Behandlungszeit lag
bei 23 Monaten und vollführte eine Aufrichtung der Zähne, Molarenintrusion, Schließen
des anterior offenen Bisses, Einstellen einer Front-Eckzahnführung und eine geringfügige
Verbesserung des Profils. Zwei Jahre nach Therapieende bestand eine bilaterale Angle-Klasse-I
ohne anterior offenen Biss.
Abstract
The correction of a combined dento-skeletal open bite with Class III malocclusion
represents one of the most difficult treatment modalities suggesting orthognathic
surgery. This report presents a patient who was recommended for surgical correction
of the dysgnathia, but refused osteotomies. The orthodontic correction was carried
out using multiloop edgewise archwires and short Class III elastics. After extraction
of all third molars the occlusal plane was inclined steeper. The orthodontic correction
comprised an active treatment period of 23 months including uprighting of teeth, molar
intrusion, closure of the anterior open bite, establishing anterior guidance, and
slight improvement of the facial profile. The two-year post-treatment follow-up showed
a bilateral Angle class I without open bite.
