  • Title: [Posterior bite collapse. 2. Therapeutic proposals].
    Author: Giovannoli JL, Dersot JM.
    Journal: J Parodontol; 1991 Feb; 10(1):21-30. PubMed ID: 2072268.
    Abstract:
    In the treatment of posterior bite collapse, the orthodontic phase consists of three steps: uprighting of molar teeth, leveling of the mandibular arch and closure of anterior diastemas. During and after orthodontic therapy, the maintenance of periodontal health is important. For patients in which there is a reduced periodontium, splinting should be accomplished after the teeth are moved into their desired position.
