Reduction of overbite can be accomplished most readily by which of the following tooth movements?: (A) Intruding maxillary incisors, (B) Uprighting maxillary and mandibular incisors, (C) Using a high-pull headgear to the maxillary molars, (D) Using a lip bumper
Answer is A. Intruding incisors would decrease overbite while uprighting teeth and using a high-pull headgear could make overbite correction more difficult. A lip bumper would likely have little effect on overbite.
