Abstract
Anterior crossbite is the term used to describe an abnormal labiolingual relationship between one or more maxillary and mandibular incisor teeth. Different techniques have been used to correct anterior crossbite. This paper describes the use of Modified Essix appliance for the management of anterior crossbite in children in early mixed dentition. The case presented here demonstrates an anterior dental crossbite which was corrected using a modified Essix appliance on the mandibular arch. Correction was achieved within 8 to 10 weeks with improved and healthy periodontium. The procedure is a simple, effective, and patient compliant method for treating anterior dental crossbite.
