Deepbite is a common type of malocclusion, but it leads to difficulties in treatment and retention. We report the treatment of an adult patient with deepbite and severe crowding of teeth. Several teeth had to be restored, and the maxillary central incisors had short roots. Various treatment plans were considered, and extraction of the maxillary right and left first premolars, and mandibular right central incisor was planned. Successful treatment results were obtained with long-term retention.

Introduction: Deepbite is a vertical malocclusion found alone or in association with other types of sagittal and transverse disorders. With a high relapse tendency, deepbite is considered one of the most challenging malocclusions to treat. It is commonly found in mixed dentition with increased prevalence of 21.

Introduction: Cooperation and choice of device are not sufficient to predict the success of interceptive treatment in Class II, 1. The aim of this study was to identify specific factors of patient morphology that predict success.

Material And Methods: A retrospective, prognostic, comparative, monocentric, intention-to-treat study was carried out.

This case report describes the treatment of a Class II malocclusion with upper lateral incisors agenesis in an adult patient, performed by an invisible preadjusted lingual appliance, monolateral space opening and dental Class II correction. The patient had previously been treated by clear aligners with the insertion of an implant in upper right canine position in order to close the remaining space. With the twofold aim of obtaining ideal occlusal relationship and smile aesthetic improvement, it highlights how a fixed orthodontic technique is needed to achieve the planned results, when anterior torque, bodily translations and deep-bite correction are necessary.

Objective: The curve of Spee is deemed important characteristic of the dentition for a balanced occlusion and distribution of masticatory forces, while orthodontic levelling of an accentuated curve of Spee is generally included as a treatment goal for deepbite correction. However, relapse is often seen and can be problematic.

Methods: A retrospective longitudinal study of predominantly young patients with a deep curve of Spee, who had been treated orthodontically with 0.

Background: This study aimed to investigate unplanned tooth movements in deepbite correction with Invisalign.

Methods: The sample consisted of 34 adult patients with deepbite malocclusion treated with Invisalign. Pretreatment and predicted digital models were exported from ClinCheck software, while the post-treatment model was obtained from an intraoral scan taken at the end of the first set of aligners.
