The aim of this study was to check the prevalence of Anterior Open Bite Malocclusion in children of ages 8-12 in the population of Kanpur. Clinical Examination & Records (Study Models) were taken of patients at Rama Dental College Kanpur. Patients aged 8-12 were chosen as all incisors have usually erupted fully. Among the 138 examined patients, the prevalence of Anterior Open bite was 2 5 (18.11%), normal overbite was 92 (66.66%) while 21 (15.21%) of the population had increased overbite. Prevalence of Anterior open bite is relatively low in the population with no gender predilection. Majority had a normal overbite.
