Common Orthodontic Issues
Crossbite
One or more teeth in the upper arch fit too far to the inside of the lower teeth.
Crowding
There is not enough space in the mouth for permanent teeth to erupt straight.
Open Bite
The upper front teeth do not make contact with the lower front teeth when biting down.
Overbite
The upper front teeth excessively overlap the lower front teeth when biting down.
Spacing
Gaps between teeth caused by small, missing, or impacted teeth, or by excess tissue.
Underbite
The lower front teeth/jaw are positioned too far forward in relation to the upper front teeth/jaw.
