Three consecutive lateral cephalograms were available before treatment (T1), at the end of the active treatment with the RME and BB (T2), and at a follow-up observation at least 4 years after the completion of treatment (T3). The TG was compared with a control group (CG) of 16 subjects (14 girls, 2 boys) matched for sex, age, and vertical skeletal pattern. An independent sample\n t<\/jats:italic>\n -test was used to compare the T1 to T3, T1 to T2, and T2 to T3 cephalometric changes between the TG and the CG.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n In the long term, the TG showed a significantly greater increase in overbite (+1.8 mm), reduced extrusion of maxillary and mandibular molars (\u22123.3 mm), and, consequently, a significant decrease in facial divergence (\u22122.8\u00b0) when compared with untreated subjects.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n The RME and BB protocol led to successful and stable recovery of positive overbite in 100% of the patients considered. Correction of open bite was associated with reduced extrusion of maxillary and mandibular molars with a significant improvement in vertical skeletal relationships when compared with the CG.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2319\/102717-728.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,23]],"date-time":"2018-04-23T09:13:24Z","timestamp":1524474804000},"page":"523-529","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Long-term evaluation of rapid maxillary expansion and bite-block therapy in open bite growing subjects:"],"prefix":"10.2319","volume":"88","author":[{"given":"Manuela","family":"Mucedero","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Clinical Sciences and Translational Medicine, University of Rome \u201cTor Vergata,\u201d Rome, Italy."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dimitri","family":"Fusaroli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate student, Department of Clinical Sciences and Translational Medicine, University of Rome \u201cTor Vergata,\u201d Rome, Italy."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lorenzo","family":"Franchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Assistant Professor, Department of Surgery and Translational Medicine, University of Florence, Florence, Italy."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chiara","family":"Pavoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Dentistry, University Nostra Signora del Buon Consiglio, Tirana, Albania."},{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Dentistry, University Nostra Signora del Buon Consiglio, Tirana, Albania."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Cozza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor and Department Chair, Department of Clinical Sciences and Translational Medicine, University of Rome \u201cTor Vergata,\u201d Rome, Italy."},{"name":"Head, Department of Dentistry, University Nostra Signora del Buon Consiglio, Tirana, Albania."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roberta","family":"Lione","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Dentistry, University Nostra Signora del Buon Consiglio, Tirana, Albania."},{"name":"Research Fellow, Department of Dentistry, University Nostra Signora del Buon Consiglio, Tirana, Albania."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1164","reference":[{"key":"i0003-3219-88-5-523-b01","series-title":"Prog Orthod","first-page":"28","article-title":"Systematic review for orthodontic and orthopedic treatments for anterior open bite in the mixed dentition","volume":"17","author":"Pisani \n L,","year":"2016","unstructured":"Pisani \n L, \n \n \n Bonaccorso \n L, \n \n \n Fastuca \n R, \n \n \n Spena \n R, \n \n \n Lombardo \n L, \n \n \n Caprioglio \n A. \n \n \n Systematic review for orthodontic and orthopedic treatments for anterior open bite in the mixed dentition.
