Approximately 50% to 55% of children between the ages of 6 and 17 have some form of Class 1 malocclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Dental malocclusions are classified based on the positioning of the upper and lower molars. A class 1 malocclusion means that the molar position, or bite, is normal, but there are other teeth that are misaligned in some way. These anomalies can include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Overlapping or overcrowded teeth<\/li>\n<li>Rotated teeth<\/li>\n<li>Gaps between the teeth<\/li>\n<li>Asymmetry<\/li>\n<li>Open bite<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Types of class 1 malocclusion<\/h3>\n<p>Class 1 malocclusions can be further categorized according to the Dewey-Anderson classification. This classification method provides more specifications on the various problems associated with class 1 malocclusions.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Class I Type 1: overlapping anterior teeth and upper or lower incisor and canine crowding<\/li>\n<li>Class I Type 2: vertical problem, protruding maxillary incisors with spaces between the teeth<\/li>\n<li>Class I Type 3: anterior cross-bite<\/li>\n<li>Class I Type 4: posterior cross-bite<\/li>\n<li>Class I Type 5: A lack of space for teeth posterior to the canines, premolars or 2nd and 3rd molars<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to treat class 1 malocclusions<\/h2>\n<p>To avoid the potential <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquemaxillo.com\/en\/blogue\/malocclusion-treatments-and-consequences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">consequences of a class 1 malocclusion<\/a>, it is important to seek treatment promptly and have the problem corrected.<\/p>\n<p>Most class 1 malocclusions can be corrected with traditional orthodontic treatments such as metal or clear ceramic braces.
