Etiologies and traditional treatment modalities regarding anterior open-bite were discussed to elucidate the advantages and disadvantages. And an emphasis was placed on the understanding of the true nature of anterior open-bite. Most anterior open-bite malocclusions can be treated with a high degree of success and stability without surgical intervention with the congnizance of the anatomy, the physiology and the dynamics of orthodontic mechanotherapy. In this regard, a Multiloop Edgewise Arch Wire (MEAW) Technic, which has been developed during the past twenty years by Dr. Kim, was introduced. Three cases with anterior open-bite malocclusion were presented to demonstrate the mechanotherapy.
