“…[45][46][47] However, anterior open bites in adult patients are considered skeletal, since the positioning of the anterior teeth implies in permanently deformed dentoalveolar bases and, most of the time, malocclusion is treated with fixed orthodontic appliances and intermaxillary elastics. 48 Indeed, an orthodontic-surgical approach, with mandibular advancement and counterclockwise rotation of the occlusal plane, can be an alternative therapeutic plan for these cases 49 But orthognathic surgeries involve extra costs and risks, and provide no full guarantee of long-term stability. Some professionals would claim that orthognathic surgery is the primary option for patients with hyperdivergent retrognathic phenotype, being the premolar extractions option an alternative treatment plan.…”

Adult patients with anterior open bite and hyperdivergent retrognathic phenotype demand complex treatments, as premolar extractions, molar intrusion or orthognathic surgery. In the present clinical case, a young adult patient without significant growth, with Class I and anterior open bite, was treated with four premolar extractions. The therapeutic result shows good intercuspation, good facial esthetic, good function balance, and stability in a two-year post-fixed treatment follow-up.

Structured Abstract The objective of this report was to provide an overview of the current landscape of big data analytics in the healthcare sector, introduce various approaches of machine learning and discuss potential implications in the field of orthodontics. With the increasing availability of data from various sources, the traditional analytical methods may not be conducive anymore for examining clinical outcomes. Machine‐learning approaches, which are algorithms trained to identify patterns in large data sets, are ideally suited to facilitate data‐driven decision making. The field of orthodontics is particularly ripe for embracing the big data analytics platform to improve decision making in clinical practice. The availability of omics data, state‐of‐the‐art imaging and potential for establishing large clinical data repositories have favourably positioned the specialty of orthodontics to deliver personalized and precision orthodontic care. Specifically, we discuss about next‐generation sequencing, radiomics in the context of CBCT imaging, and how centralized data repositories can enable real‐time data pooling from multiple sources.

Introduction: This paper evaluates patient satisfaction of adults, who received orthodontic treatment for anterior openbite malocclusion across the United States. The factors that influence the satisfaction of these patients are also described. Methods: Practitioners were recruited from the National Dental Practice-Based Research Network. Upon joining the Network, practitioner demographics and information on their practices were acquired. Practitioners enrolled their adult patients in active treatment for anterior openbite. Patient demographics, patient dentofacial characteristics, and details regarding previous and current treatment were collected through questionnaires at enrollment (T1). Pre-treatment lateral cephalograms and intraoral frontal photographs were submitted. Treatment performed and details related to treatment outcome were recorded through questionnaires at the end of active treatment (T2). Post-treatment lateral cephalograms and intraoral frontal photographs were submitted. Patient satisfaction at the end of active treatment (T2) was assessed using a five-point, Likert-like scale and open-ended responses. Predictive univariate models were developed to evaluate the factors that influence patient satisfaction. Open-ended responses were reviewed for general trends. Results: End of active treatment (T2) data was received for 256 patients. Two hundred forty-eight of these patients completed and returned the patient satisfaction questionnaires. High levels of satisfaction were found in our sample of adult patients receiving treatment for anterior openbite malocclusion. Specifically, 96% of the sample reported being very or somewhat satisfied. Only ten patients (4%) were not satisfied with the treatment provided or an element of the final result. Successful openbite closure, treatment modality, and certain patient characteristics may influence patient satisfaction. However, there was insufficient power to demonstrate statistical significance. Open-ended responses directly associated with patient satisfaction were received from twenty-three patients (9%). They relayed positive, neutral, and negative feelings about the treatment received and final results. Additional responses regarding the orthodontic treatment in general, but not specifically linked to patient satisfaction, were received from 119 patients (48%). These comments depict an overwhelmingly positive experience. Conclusions: Adult patients who received orthodontic treatment for anterior openbite malocclusion were generally satisfied with the treatment provided, as well as the final esthetic and functional results.
