Abstract EN
Anterior crossbite is relatively a common presentation in the mixed dentition stage.
If left untreated, it can lead to a host of problems and may complicate future orthodontic treatment.
One of the major difficulties in performing anterior crossbite correction in young children is treatment compliance.
In most cases, poor compliance is due to the unacceptability of the removable appliance used.
This article describes three cases of successful correction of anterior crossbite of patients in mixed dentition using short-span wire-fixed orthodontic appliances.
This sectional appliance provides an alternative method of correcting anterior crossbite of dental origin and offers many advantages compared to the use of removable appliances.
