“…The literature offers descriptions of various types of appliances used for early treatment of pseudo-Class III malocclusion. These options include fixed and removable orthodontic appliances, tongue blades, composite inclined planes, reversed stainless steel crowns [18]. When selecting a treatment approach, it's crucial to consider factors such as the patient's age, stage of dental development, the number of affected teeth, the severity of the overbite, and the motivation of both the child and the parents for the procedure [10].…”

Anterior crossbite is a malocclusion that occurs for a variety of reasons, causes significant issues, and may be corrected in a variety of ways. Early recognition and timely intervention are crucial in managing anterior dental crossbites during the mixed dentition stage. The purpose of this report is to assist general dentists and pediatric dentists in distinguishing between cases within their scope of practice and those requiring referral to orthodontists and treating this condition immediately to prevent future complex treatment and improve patient aesthetics and function. This case report highlights the treatment of an eight-year-old patient with class III incisors on a skeletal class I base, presenting with an anterior crossbite. The patient was treated successfully using an upper removable appliance, showcasing a non-invasive and effective approach to correcting dental malocclusions early. The rapid correction of the crossbite within six weeks underscores the importance of early intervention and the potential for general dentists and pediatric dentists to manage such conditions efficiently, improving patient outcomes in aesthetics and function.

“…It is important to note, though, that a composite plane may not be used if the anterior crossbite extends beyond one-third of the crown length. Furthermore, the cement used with this type of appliance has been associated with the development of gingivitis [18].…”

Introduction: Anterior crossbite in mixed dentition is one of the problems that require early intervention aiming at stimulating well balance growth and occlusal development. Aim: of the comparative study was to assess patient and parental satisfaction following the treatment of anterior crossbite in the mixed dentition using: cemented lower inclined plane (CLIP) and removable anterior expansion screw (RAES). Methods: Thirty-four children (17 per group) who had received either CLIP or RAES for the correction of anterior crossbite in the mixed dentition. Patient and parental satisfaction was assessed using a validated questionnaire, which included items related to treatment experience, and overall satisfaction. Statistical analysis: Fisher’s exact or χ2 test, for categorical variables, and a two-sample Wilcoxon rank sum (Mann–Whitney) test for continuous data were performed to investigation differences between the two groups. Results: In terms of treatment duration, RAES appliance, with most participants who received RAES appliance reported that the treatments lasted longer than expected compared to the CLIP (p-value: <0.001). Parents reported that RAES appliances were more enjoyable to wear by children. Regarding functional improvement, both groups reported similar levels of satisfaction. (CLIP: 94%, RAES: 92%). Overall, patient satisfaction was comparable between the two study arms. Conclusion: Both CLIP and RAES treatment modalities were effective in the treatment of anterior crossbite in the mixed dentition, and showed high levels of patient and parental satisfaction. CLIP was notably perceived as a more painful intervention than RAES.
