Correct Overbite Glen Waverley
A deep overbite is characterized by excessive vertical overlap of the front teeth, which can lead to insufficient support for upper or lower teeth, often resulting in misalignment.
Commonly associated with conditions like front teeth protrusion and crooked teeth, deep overbites left unaddressed can cause increased tooth wear over time. Severe deep bites may even lead to traumatic gum damage behind the upper front teeth and associated pain. Timely intervention is important to prevent these potential complications.
To the left is a successful patient treated by Dr. Katie Xu, showing significant improvement in a severe deep bite and crowded teeth within just 16 months using metal braces.
