Introduction: Anterior crossbite, occurring in approximately 4-5% of the population, poses challenges primarily during mixed dentition. Early correction of anterior crossbite is critical for preventing malocclusion.
Case History: A 6-year-old male with complaint of the left upper incisor was behind the lower incisor and affecting the boy’s confidence. The patient was cooperative (Frankl scale number 4).
Discussion: Treatment options include various appliances such as tongue blades, Hawley retainers, and inclined bite planes, each with advantages and disadvantages. The inclined bite planes appliance, chosen in this case, aims to achieve a stable relationship between overjet and overbite, promoting proper tooth alignment.
Conclusion: Successful treatment prioritizes patient comfort, tissue safety, swift correction, and natural growth support. This emphasizes the importance of selecting the most suitable appliance, such as the Catlan’s, for effective correction.
