Özet

Anterior açık kapanış, multifaktöriyel etiyolojisi, farklı dentoalveoler ve iskeletsel özellikleri ve tedavi sonrası relaps eğilimi nedeniyle ortodontide yönetimi güç maloklüzyonlardan biridir. Bu bölümde anterior açık kapanışın tanımı, sınıflandırılması, görülme sıklığı, etiyolojik faktörleri, güncel tedavi yaklaşımları ve uzun dönem stabilitesi bilimsel literatür doğrultusunda ele alınmaktadır. Genetik yatkınlık, vertikal büyüme paterni, orofasiyal fonksiyon bozuklukları, oral alışkanlıklar ve solunumla ilişkili faktörlerin etiyolojideki rolleri değerlendirilmektedir. Tedavi seçenekleri kapsamında koruyucu ve önleyici yaklaşımlar, büyüme modifikasyonu, ortodontik kamuflaj, çekimli ve çekimsiz sabit ortodontik tedaviler, iskeletsel ankraj destekli molar intrüzyonu ve ortognatik cerrahi incelenmektedir. Ayrıca farklı tedavi yöntemleri sonrasında elde edilen oklüzal düzeltmenin uzun dönem korunabilirliği, relapsla ilişkili faktörler ve retansiyon stratejileri güncel sistematik derleme ve meta-analizlerin bulguları çerçevesinde tartışılmaktadır. Mevcut kanıtlar, anterior açık kapanış tedavisinde başarılı sonuçların elde edilebildiğini, ancak uzun dönem stabilitenin tedavi yaklaşımına ve bireysel hasta özelliklerine göre değişkenlik gösterdiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Sonuç olarak doğru etiyolojik değerlendirme, bireyselleştirilmiş tedavi planlaması ve uzun dönem takip, stabil tedavi sonuçlarının elde edilmesinde temel öneme sahiptir.
