  • Title: Posterior bite raising effect on the length of the ramus of the mandible in primary anterior crossbite: case report.
    Author: al-Sehaibany F, White G.
    Journal: J Clin Pediatr Dent; 1996; 21(1):21-6. PubMed ID: 9161201.
    Abstract:
    Posterior occlusal acrylic resin blocks were bonded to the mandibular primary molars. This removes incisal interferences while correcting the anterior crossbite with Utility Archwire Appliance. Since the first permanent molars were not included in the occlusal coverage, the permanent molars were free to erupt to a new plane of occlusion. This resulted in an increased length of the ramus by 11 mm and counterclockwise rotation of the mandible is reported.
