The target group consisted of 55 children affected by previous crossbites and of both sexes, ages from 4-11 years while the sample was comprised of 28 children affected by previous simple crossbites treating their correction with an acrylic inclined plane on plaster models; they had weekly appointments to their control and activation. The results were calculated using chi square test with a significance level of p <0.05.
Results: it was determined that 9.2% of students were affected by previous crossbites, 51% had upper simple crossbites, male sex was the most affected and the age group from 7-9 years; 96% of this anomaly was corrected in a time not exceeding the 21 days.
Conclusions: crossbite is a health problem that affects children. The inclined plane is a simple, fast and effective method which is well-tolerated by patients it is within the recommendations of a Comprehensive Dentist.
