The treatment of skeletal open bite has challenged the general dentist, oral surgeon, and orthodontist for a long time. This deformity produces social and psychological distress as well as functional problems in patients. The establishment of a correct diagnosis and aetiology is very important and may indeed dictate the method and choice of treatment. The present case report demonstrates the orthodontic and surgical treatment of an adult patient with high angle growth pattern and skeletal open bite malocclusion.
Keywords: Skeletal open bite, orthognathic surgery, vertical dysplasia.
