Anterior Crossbite in Children

One of the main purposes of pediatric dentistry is to prevent malocclusions by facilitating the correct positioning of teeth and healthy development of jaw arcs through tooth eruption guidance. Any form of malocclusion would hamper facial esthetics. One such malocclusion is anterior crossbite. Thus, in order to improve smile and esthetics it is important to correct it. Detection of these conditions in the primary dentition can allow either intervention or monitoring at an early stage.For children in the growth and development period, solving problems with minor interventions affects their social life positively. Anterior cross-bite treatment is a highly conservative approach for pediatric patients when it is diagnosed correctly and treated appropriately.
