An interventional study of flat fixed anterior bite plane and modified inclined fixed anterior bite plane in Skeletal Class 2, sponsored by Cairo University. Status unknown at 1 site in Egypt. Open to female participants aged 10 Years to 13 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-02-06.

This study will be conducted to see if unlocking mandible from deep bite in growing females by flat fixed anterior bite plane will change mandibular position in skeletal mandibular deficiency and if there is a difference in the change of mandibular position if we assisted the mandible by holding it in a more forward position by modified inclined fixed anterior bite plane .These results will be compared to normal mandibular growth from previous records of a matched control group in the discussion afterthat.
Two groups of patients the first for flat fixed anterior bite plane, the second for modified inclined fixed anterior bite plane.Full records are taken to patients. Then bands selection for upper first molars,impressions for upper arch with bands fitted and impression to lower arch, fabrication of either flat/ modified inclined fixed anterior bite planes and cementation in patient's mouth,evaluation of results after 8 months.
Inclusion Criteria:
(1)Growing females aged 10-13 (2)Skeletal maturational stage: stages 3,4 of the cervical maturational index CVMI.
(3) low-angle/moderate normal growth pattern (4) Overjet of 4-7 mm as measured from labial surface of upper incisors to labial surface of lower incisors (5)Skeletal class 2 due to mandibular deficiency 77 degrees \<SNB> 73 degrees (6) Normal or slightly protruded maxillary base (7) All cases had dental deep bite; with the upper incisors covering more than 50% of the height of the lower incisors.
(8)Only deep bite cases that required extrusion of posterior teeth.
Exclusion Criteria:1- No syndromic or medically compromised patients 2- No growth disorders 3- No use of other appliances before or during the period of functional treatment
-
Bands selection will be done for upper 6s. Alginate impressions taken and molar bands are fitted in place into the impressions. Impressions for upper and lower arches are poured with stone plaster. Mounting on simple hinge articulator will be done. Lingual arches (diameter 1 mm) with anterior acrylic bite plates with thickness enough to separate posterior teeth 4mm . The acrylic bite planes were in occlusion with the lower anterior teeth and extended sagittally 2-3mm beyond edges of lower incisors. Finishing ,polishing and cementation into patient's mouth with glass ionomer cement.
Device: flat fixed anterior bite plane
In modified inclined fixed anterior bite plane,the modification is that some indentations will be done in the acrylic part where the lower anteriors will fit such that mandible will be held in a more forward position. These indentations will be relieved lingually to overcome it's flaring effect on mandibular incisors .The inclined plane will be 60 degrees to occlusal plane. Functional bite will be taken to position the mandible in the proper position forward. Bite taken edge-to-edge for appliance construction. Mounting upper and lower casts on simple hinge articulator for construction of modified flat fixed anterior bite plane
Device: modified inclined fixed anterior bite plane
