The bonded bite plane is used to prevent the lower front teeth from “biting” into the tissue behind the upper front teeth thus causing damage to the tissue and teeth. By “opening” the bite in the front of the mouth, it allows the back teeth to erupt more in order to correct this problem.
The bonded bite plane is also used to correct a severe over-bite (the upper front teeth closing too far over the lower front teeth) in the same way.
The bonded bite plane is made by placing a small amount of bonding material to the backside of the upper teeth to create a triangular plane. After correction, the doctor removes the plane by “polishing” it away with a special high-speed instrument.
It is important for patients to keep the tissue area surrounding the bite planes very clean. Watching out for hard foods that could break off these planes is also important. There are times when one of the planes may come off. This is okay, because as long as there is one remaining, the job can be accomplished.
