On other occasions, we have talked about anterior open bite. A problem that makes it difficult to close the mouth correctly because the front teeth of the mouth do not touch. So, as the name suggests, posterior open bite is a malocclusion that occurs when the back teeth, molars and premolars, do not come together properly. For this reason, at Birbe Clinic we are specialists in the treatment of posterior open bite in Barcelona, offering a service of excellence to all our patients.
Open bite is one of the most common dental malocclusions in our society. And although it is thought to be a purely aesthetic difficulty, the reality is that it can have harmful consequences for the oral health of people who suffer from this alteration. In fact, in some cases, they may suffer from respiratory and digestive issues. It is therefore essential that patients with a severe open bite can come to our clinic so that our specialists can offer the best treatment.
What causes posterior open bite, and what are its consequences?
The factors that cause this malformation are genetic, epigenetic, and environmental in nature. There are usually several factors that cause this malocclusion. In general, it is caused by skeletal problems, when the maxilla or mandible are not in the correct position, thus causing disharmony in the upper and lower teeth. Backbite is also a consequence of incomplete eruption or absence of teeth in the posterior region.
On the other hand, the consequences that cause this difficulty are the following:
- Difficulty in chewing, which also causes issues with digestion.
- Diction difficulties. A lisp is one of the most characteristic in patients diagnosed with open bite.
- Breathing concerns. As the jaws are not properly developed, they have difficulty breathing through the nose and end up breathing through the mouth, further aggravating their malocclusion.
- Appearance of temporomandibular joint disorders that manifest themselves with head, neck and facial pain; jaw blockages, etc.
- Aesthetic issues and, consequently, self-esteem difficulties, as these issues worsen their quality of life and their physique.
Posterior open bite, treatment by Birbe Clinic
Depending on whether the bite is skeletal or dental, different treatments are carried out. The former is treated with orthognathic surgery and orthodontics, the latter with orthodontics to move the teeth and correct the occlusion.
When only the open bite needs to be corrected because there are no other alterations in the other dimensions of the space, mono maxillary orthognathic surgery is performed. With this, a posterior impaction of the maxilla can be carried out, or the mandible can be rotated counterclockwise to close the open bite.
