Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The mechanics on DAVIT group should allow a dento-alveolar effect of intrusion of the posterior segment and extrusion of the anterior segment verified by cephalometric measures on tele radiography;In orthodontic mechanics involving the use of intermaxillary elastics for the correction of anterior open bite, extrusion of anterior teeth is expected and little or no vertical intrusive effect on posterior teeth. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Based on the mechanics performed in DAVIT group, we believe that there will be an orthopedic effect on the mandible through a counterclockwise rotation | — |
