In Part 2 of achieving proper over-bite and overjet I will present brief glimpses of eleven clinical cases using the tools and principles described in Part 1.8 Some of the cases are completed and some are ongoing. A common goal in all of the cases is to place the maxillary and mandibular incisors and first molars into their correct positions in all three planes of space, generally using a partial appliance so that “the foot (mandibular teeth) will fit the shoe (maxillary teeth)”.1
Commentary about aspects of each case is provided.
