    This study evaluated morphological and dental height changes in the maxilla and mandible associated with different overbite classifications in 96 adolescents aged 13-18 using cephalometric analysis. Measurements showed open bite subjects had increased maxillary and mandibular dental heights, larger jaw areas, and larger gonial angles, while deep bite subjects had opposite characteristics. Open bite subjects also had longer mandibular symphyses. Evaluation of dental heights, jaw areas, gonial angle, and symphysis shape may be useful in treating overbite issues.

    Abstract

    AIM: The present study was carried out to cephalometrically evaluate the morphological
    and dentoalveolar height changes in maxilla and mandible associated with overbite in 13-18
    year old adolescents. The main aim of this study was to seek possible identifiable
    associations of overbite with morphology of maxilla and mandible among different overbite
    groups.
    METHODS:For the present study a sample of 96 (44 males and 52 females) untreated
    adolescents with an age range of 13-18 years were selected from the records of the
    Department of Orthodontics, J.S.S Dental College & Hospital, Mysore. The subjects were
    divided into four groups (normal bite, deep bite, edge to edge bite and open bite) on the
    basis of overbite.
    Various cephalometric points, planes, angles, linear and area measurements were used in
    this study to evaluate the morphology of mandible and maxilla in different overbite groups.
    A significant difference was found in the morphology and dentoalveolar heights of maxilla
    and mandible among the overbite groups.
    RESULTS: The result of this study showed that subjects with open bite generally had
    increased maxillary anterior and posterior dentoalveolar heights and mandibular anterior
    dentoalveolar height and they also had a larger maxillary, mandibular and symphysis area
    and larger gonial angle, whereas subjects with deep bite had opposite characteristics.
    Subjects with open bite also showed a long symphysis among all overbite groups, while
    subjects with deep bite had a larger maxillary anterior depth.
    CONCLUSION: The evaluation of maxillary and mandibular dentoalveolar heights, area,
    gonial angle and shape of the symphysis may be useful in the treatment of overbite
    problems.
