Treatment of anterior crossbite in the primary dentition with esthetic crowns: report of 3 cases.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Anterior crossbite is a sagittal malocclusion occurring in approximately 4 to 5% of children with primary dentition. Although self-correction may occur, treating an anterior crossbite as early as possible has been proposed to prevent problems in the transitional and permanent dentitions. The purpose of this paper is to present an optional restorative treatment used in 3 cases where an anterior crossbite was treated by restoring the primary maxillary incisors with esthetic pediatric strip crowns. In all 3 cases, the crossbite was successfully treated by using the proposed technique over 1 to 2 weeks. A 6-month follow-up showed that the occlusion stabilized into a sagittal normal relationship, permitting normal dentofacial growth and development to continue. The technique presented here can be added to the armamentarium of pediatric dentists and general practitioners to correct anterior crossbites diagnosed in the primary dentition.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
