AUTHOR: Domingo Martín, Amaia Maté, Jaime Valenzuela, Iñigo Gómez Bollain, Pablo Goldenberg
English abstract
This article describes 5 clinical cases where dental implants and orthodontic treatment were used to correct open bites by intruding molars, which produces autorotation of the mandible. The result is the reduction of the lower facial third and correction of the overjet and overbite. The amount of molar intrusion is calculated by a diagnostic set-up done at the beginning of treatment. This set up can also help inplacing the implants in an optimal position for both anchorage purpo- ses and prosthodontic replacement.
