92
Ortho: when is an anterior flat bite plane (FABP) used and how do you size it?
what effect does it have?
can it be used in older individuals?
how long worn for
Base plate: FABP : overjet + 3mm
- so teeth cant slip behind bite plane
- creates an anterior openbite as lower teeth move up to occlude with uppers
- no as gingiva and alveolar bone wont grow with tooth in non children
- worn longer than when teeth occlude as soft bone would cause relapse
