Repair Overbite Issues With Invisalign Devices
It's common for folks to have a small amount of overbite, where the upper front teeth overlap the lower front teeth. In some cases, however, the difference is large enough to cause some health issues, including uneven wear on your teeth and jaw pain.
At Fall Creek Family Dental, we diagnose what is called "deep bite" and describe it in percentages ranging from 5 to 25 percent.
Using Invisalign products, we can fix an overbite and bring your overbite percentage closer to the ideal of 3 percent.
Underbite Can Affect Chewing and Speaking
An underbite is the opposite of an overbite and results in your lower front teeth closing in front of your upper front teeth.
The condition is often caused by the jaw being too far forward and can make it hard to chew properly and speak clearly. It also can cause uneven wear on your teeth.
Address Underbites With Invisalign Products
Invisalign devices can fix some underbites, but in severe cases, an Invisalign treatment may have to be combined with surgery to address the issue fully.
