Sažetak

The object of the study was to determine morphologic characteristics in subjects with skeletal open bite and increased mandibular angle; correlation between the depth of the over bite and values of the size of the angle of the mandibular base, maxillary base and intermaxillary angle; correlation between the depth of the over bite with values of anterior and posterior facial height and dentoalveolar compensatory mechanism in vertical type growth. The sample consisted of 77 laterolateral cephalograms of subjects with skeletal open bite of both genders, aged from 13 to 18 years. It was determined that 49.4% of the subjects had open bite, while 50.6% of the subjects were compensated, i.e. 41.5% had normal over bite and 9.1% deep bite.
