Abstract
- The patient, 20 year-old female, complained of anterior open bite. She had tongue thrusting habit and suffered from maxillary sinusitis since 12-years old. Cephalometric analysis revealed slightly forward relationship maxilla, but normal in man-dible. The anterior open bite was corrected through retraction and extrusion of anterior segment and mesial movement of posterior segment under multibanded system after extraction of 4-first premolars. After 2 years and 3 months, she gained ideal overbite, overjet and good interdigitation of buccal segment.
