Overbite

Overbite is a common tooth and jaw issue that can affect your breathing, eating, speaking and self-confidence. At Best Invisalign Dentist, we offer you the best solution to correct your gleaming smile and achieve good oral health.

Why Overbite is a concern?

Common reasons for Overbites

When the upper teeth fully or partially overlap the bottom jaw and teeth, Overbite occurs. Severe Overbites can cause oral health issues in children as well as in adults while also causing aesthetic concerns in patients of all ages.

Tongue-thrusting

It usually occurs in children due to persistent tonsils, swollen adenoids and poor swallowing habits. It can result in a malocclusion such as Overbite.

Thumb sucking

Thumb sucking is known as Non-Nutritive Sucking Behaviour (NNSB). If it continued even after the age of 4-5 when permanent teeth are appearing, it will create pressure on the teeth which can cause Overbite.

Pacifier

Sucking on a pacifier is another form of NNSB. It can push the front teeth forward by creating pressure the same way that sucking on a thumb can.

Genetics

Some people have an uneven jaw or a small lower or upper jaw from birth. An Overbite can be hereditary, and other family members may also have a similar issue.

Tumors and cysts

Tumors in the jaw or gums can change the alignment of your teeth. This happens due to persistent swelling or growth in the upper portion of your mouth or jaw. It can shift the teeth forward.

Missing teeth or extra teeth

Missing teeth, extra teeth or impacted teeth can shift your remaining teeth over time. It affects the position of your front teeth and causes Overbite.

Fixing an Overbite

Best Overbite treatment options for you

An Overbite can be fixed effectively at the most advanced and well-equipped dental facility like Best Invisalign Dentist. We have years of rich experience in treating patients with moderate to severe Overbite issue. Different treatment options are-

Invisalign

Overbite with Invisalign is an effective and modern orthodontic treatment that aims to align your crooked teeth without the use of traditional metal braces. It is a clear plastic retainer-fitting tray for your teeth.

Correction surgery

In some cases, Overbites may require surgery to move the jaw bone. This treatment option is not apt for children as they are still growing.

Tooth extraction

Removing extra teeth from a crowded mouth helps other teeth to move into the right place easily. This is the solution for people suffering from severe Overbites.

Overbite braces

The process involves the fastening of the metal brackets to the teeth and then joining these brackets with wire to the teeth. As the straightening is complete, Overbite will be fixed.
