3D-printed aligners for treating an open bite
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests whether new 3D-printed shape-memory aligners can effectively fix a mild-to-moderate open bite (when front teeth don't touch when you bite down). It may be a good option if you are between 18 and 35, generally healthy, and have a mild open bite with fairly straight teeth.

This study compares two ways to fix an open bite (where front teeth don't touch): clear aligners like Invisalign versus traditional braces. If you qualify, you'll get one of these treatments to help close the gap and improve your bite.
This study looks at whether orthodontic treatment for anterior open bite (a gap between upper and lower front teeth when biting down) stays stable over time. The researchers want to understand what helps the correction last.
This trial tests a special 3D-printed brace to fix underbite in children aged 8-13 who still have growing upper jaws. The brace encourages the upper jaw to grow forward and corrects the bite.
This trial is testing a new 3D-printed device that moves your upper molars backward to correct a specific type of bite problem (Class II). It may help you if you have a clear overbite on both sides and your second molars are already in place.
This trial compares two types of braces (a 3D-printed removable brace and a fixed brace called MARA) to see which works better for correcting a bite problem where the lower jaw is too far back. It is designed for teenagers who are still growing and have a large overbite.
This trial tests two different dental appliances to fix an open bite in children. It compares a vertical holding appliance to a special arch bar to see which works better.
