Tratamiento de la mala oclusión clase III con plano inclinado y arco de Eschler: reporte de caso.

Abstract

According to studies conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO), many pathologies have been found that refer to stomatognathic problems, such as dental caries, periodontal disease, and malocclusions. Anterior Crossbite (ACBM) is a sagittal deviation of the occlusion characterized by an anterior position of the lower incisors or posterior part of the upper incisors; it can be of dental or skeletal origin. A clinical case is presented, a 10-year-old patient, five months old, who came to consult with her mother due to the inverted position of her son's anterior teeth. In the patient's diagnosis, hereditary mandibular prognathism was determined, so the treatment will use the Inclined Plane, Eschler Arch, and chin rest. Favorable results were observed with less risk of root resorption due to the short use of orthodontic appliances; therefore, performing this treatment in mixed dentition is advisable.
