Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
group I: bonded tongue tamers
25 cases with anterior open bite will be treated using bonded tongue tamers
bonded tongue tamers
Enamel surface will be treated initially with 37% phosphoric acid for 30 seconds then tongue tamers will be bonded to the palatal/lingual surface of upper and lower central incisors
group II: customized bonded spurs
25 cases with anterior open bite will be treated using customized bonded spurs
customized bonded spurs
Composite restoration will be used to fabricate the customized bonded spurs with sharp ends and 3 mm in length.
group III: conventional fixed palatal spurs
25 cases with anterior open bite will be treated using conventional fixed palatal spurs
conventional fixed palatal spurs
conventional fixed palatal spurs will be fabricated by taking impression after band selection, then the spurs appliance will be fabricated from 0.9 mm stainless steel wire and soldered to the bands bilaterally.
