Crossbites are the result of a malocclusion on the transverse plane of the maxilla and are defined as alterations of the correct alignment of the palatal cusps of the upper molars and premolars with the pits of the lower molars and premolars. Transverse alterations are frequently seen in general dental practices and it is necessary to establish a good differential diagnosis in order to adopt the treatment that will achieve the greatest efficiency and the most stable results possible. Skeletal constriction, dentoalveolar constriction and dental constriction must therefore be differentiated, as each requires different treatment with different orthodontic appliances. This article aims to provide a simple guide to the correct diagnosis of transverse anomalies and to choosing the most suitable orthodontic appliance for each case.
反牙合是上颌横向平面错牙合的结果，定义为上颌磨牙和前磨牙腭尖与下颌磨牙和前磨牙窝正确对齐关系的改变。横向改变在一般牙科诊疗中很常见，为了采用能达到最大疗效和最稳定效果的治疗方法，有必要进行良好的鉴别诊断。因此，必须区分骨骼狭窄、牙牙槽狭窄和牙齿狭窄，因为每种情况需要用不同的正畸矫治器进行不同的治疗。本文旨在提供一个简单的指南，用于正确诊断横向异常，并为每种情况选择最合适的正畸矫治器。
