RESUMO
The treatment of anterior open bite has proven to be a challenge in orthodontics. In this study we tried to treat anterior open bite patients with a combination of incisor extrusion and molar intrusion. The purpose of the study was to evaluate dental changes taking place due to the effect of accentuated curve NiTi wires with anterior box elastics in anterior open bite patients. The results clearly demonstrate that there has been significant dentoalveolar change. This study confirms that the molars uprighted significantly rather than molar intrusion along with incisor extrusion
