Abstract:Objective: To evaluate the effects of anterior bite plane on the masseter and geniohyoid muscle thickness.
Materials and Methods: 14 subjects who needed bite opening were allocated as a single group with mean age of 17.4± 3.4 years and mean overbite of 5.3±0.2 was treated with a fixed anterior bite plane (ABT). The pre-treatment (T1) and post-treatment results (T2) was compared to study the effect of Bite opening. The ultrasonographic imaging was used to evaluate masseter muscle thickness (clenched and r… Show more
