Underbite
An underbite is characterized by the lower jaw extending out, causing the lower front teeth to sit in front of the upper front teeth.
Spacing
Spacing can be caused by missing teeth, small teeth, or a low and thick frenum attachment.
Deep Bite
Deep Bite occurs when teeth have insufficient room to erupt from the gum. Deep Bite is corrected by expansion or tooth removal, depending upon your individual needs.
Crossbite
The upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth, which may cause abnormal tooth wear and misaligned jaw growth.
Overbite
The upper front teeth extend out excessively over the lower front teeth, sometimes causing the lower front teeth to bite into the roof of the mouth.
Openbite
Proper chewing is impacted by this type of bite, in which the upper and lower teeth do not overlap correctly. Openbite may cause a number of unwanted habits, such as tongue thrusting. One can have an anterior or a posterior openbite.
Dental Midlines not Matched
This type of problem is caused when the back bite does not fit and match appropriately. Sometimes, but not always, this may negatively impact proper dental function.
Gum Recession
Gum tissue can recede due to trauma from abnormal or heavy contacts, rotated prominent teeth, thin gum tissue, or teeth tipped too much towards the inside of the mouth. Orthodontic treatment can stabilize gum recession.
