Anterior open bite in the mixed dentition is one of the most difficult malocclusions to treat due to its multifactorial etiology and high recurrence rate; therefore, it should be treated as soon as possible since the lack of vertical relationship between the incisors can generate problems in the sagittal plane. We present a 9 year-old patient with an anterior open bite
She was managed with removable interceptive appliances and later the eruption of the permanent teeth was controlled.
