Abstract

One of the most common anomalies of the dental system is a deep bite, which is observed during the entire period of formation of the dental system. Its main clinical sign is a violation of the cutting-tubercle contact with the overlap of the lower frontal teeth. Deep bite "in its pure form" is rare. Quite often it is combined with anomalies in the sagittal plane, as well as with anomalies in the position of individual teeth. Such a bite leads to a violation of the functions of the chewing apparatus and the body as a whole. However, the reasons prompting the patient to consult a doctor are most often a cosmetic defect, pain, a feeling of fatigue in the temporomandibular joints.
