Özet
Multiple factors play role in the etiology of openbite malocclusion. For a successful orthodontic treatment the etiology of the malocclusion must be eliminated. A proper diagnosis of the malocclusion and elimination is an essential factor, especially in open bite cases. In the present case, patient was a seven year one month old boy who had a severe open bite with class I molar relationship and tongue thrust. In the anemnesis of the patient, tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy surgery was reported at the age of four. Also, difficulty in the speach was another important finding of the patient. The final outcome of the treatment was a great improvement in function andesthetics. The main reason this patient could be successfully treated nonsurgically was her initial compliance, and the proper therapy options used during this two-phase treatment.
