1. WHAT IS A DEEP BITE?

2. INTRODUCTION-
The excessive overlapping of upper front teeth over
the lower fronts is deep bite. A person with deep
bite presents with change in facial structure and
problems associated with jaws.
Deep bite can be one of the inheriting factors like-
tooth morphology, condylar growth pattern.

3. Acquired factors like muscular habit, change in
tooth positioning, loss of posterior teeth and
lateral tongue thrust
habit.

4. Treatment options available to
correct deep bite:

5. Orthodontic treatment-
•In this, your upper and lower teeth are made to
push back in the supporting bone with help of
braces.
•Maintenance of corrected deep bite is the most
crucial challenge for an orthodontist, when no
accurate identification of the etiologic factors is
performed, treatment relapse is common.

6. •INVISALIGN-
Invisalign are clear aligners and are custom
made. It is a clear tray covering your maxillary
and mandibular teeth, such many trays are
manufactured so that the slight changes
towards alignment in the teeth can be achieved
step-by-step.

7. Your teeth will typically move 0.25
mm per tray.

8. •DAMON SYSTEM-
•It is the new emerging type of
orthodontic treatment. Damon braces use
slide mechanism to hold the wire, which
allows teeth to move more freely, quickly
and comfortably.

9. •These are self-ligating memory wires
attached to the slide allowing the
movement without pressure that elastic
bands produce.

10. Restorative treatment-
•This can include laminates and veneers
as the option to correct overbite.
•In overbite, it is seen that lower incisors
are attrited or a part of a tooth is chipped
off- in such cases composite core built up
can be done.

11. Periodontal therapy-
•In this, one with overbite should
keep a regular check for his gums.
•Gingivitis is the common problem
with deep bite this can be managed
by getting regular clean ups at dental
office.

12. Use of habit breaking appliance in early
stage-
1
•Thumb sucking
2
•Tongue thrusting
3
•Lip thrusting

13. Use of night guards-
Use of night guards is also helpful to
some extent. It is the transparent
covering over upper and lower teeth
protecting it from coming in direct
contact and prevents constant friction
causing wear and tear of enamel in upper
and lower front teeth.

14. Classifications:
• Dento-
alveolar Deep
bite
1
• Skeletal deep
bite2

15. Other Methods of deep bite correction:
Extrusion of upper back teeth
Intrusion of anterior teeth
Combination of both
Proclination of incisors
Surgical

16. Extrusion of upper back teeth
Cross arch vertical elastics used to bring posterior extrusion

17. Intrusion of anterior teeth
Mandibular incisor intrusion

18. Combination of intrusion and
extrusion

19. Proclination of incisors
TPA used for incisor proclination

20. Surgical- Orthognathic surgeries:
Orthognathic surgeries are performed in
combination with orthodontic treatment to achieve
dramatic changes in the facial structure making the
teeth aligned.
In case of protruded maxilla which overlaps the
lower mandibular teeth is corrected by removing
some bone from the upper jaw, then the jaw is
aligned securing it by plates and screws.

21. In case of mandibular protrusion, which overlaps
the maxillary teeth, also classified as class III
malocclusion can be corrected. In this, the parent
portion of the lower jaw is separated by its base
and mandible is moved backward for proper
alignment.
In case of mandibular receding jaw, it is corrected
by mandibular advancement surgery. In this, the
teeth bearing area of the lower jaw is repositioned
forward.

22. Summary and conclusion:
The significant skeletal contributing factors were
gonial and basal angles, as well as the posterior
facial height, ramus length, lower anterior facial
height and upper anterior facial height. An increased
curve of spee and decreased mandibular first molar
height were predominant dental variables in the
deep bite group. The variables with the greatest
variances from the normal limit were the ratio of the
lower anterior facial height to the total anterior
facial height, the lower anterior facial height to the
upper anterior facial height and the ramus length.
