Deep incisor malocclusion impairs aesthetics and causes significant functional and morphological changes in the masticatory system, which become most evident in adulthood. Excessive overbite, by blocking mandibular movements, can lead to the development of temporomandibular joint disorders. Furthermore, partial tooth loss can significantly increase the severity of the clinical picture. A rational orthopedic treatment plan for patients is proposed, improving occlusal relationships, chewing function, and aesthetics.
