But can this innovative orthodontic treatment also be used to address common bite problems, like overbites and underbites? Read on to learn the answer!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So, Can Invisalign Fix Bite Problems?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer is \u201cyes!\u201d In fact, Invisalign has proven to be effective at correcting several common bite problems, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Overbites<\/strong> \u2013 If your upper teeth jut out beyond your lower ones more than they should, several problems can arise, including trouble enunciating clearly. Fortunately, clear aligners are often a solution for patients with mild to moderate cases, allowing them to achieve a healthier bite without any metal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Underbites <\/strong>\u2013 An underbite is when the lower teeth sit in front of the upper ones. Unfortunately, even mild ones can negatively impact a patient\u2019s self-esteem, oral health, and speaking patterns. There is good news though: clear aligners can often be used with other orthodontic accessories, like rubber bands, to bring a patient\u2019s bite into proper alignment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Crossbites<\/strong> \u2013 If you have a crossbite, then you know all too well how difficult it can be to smile confidently, chew properly, and enunciate clearly. Since misalignment usually gets worse with time, it\u2019s important to explore your treatment options, like Invisalign, sooner rather than later.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Open bites<\/strong> \u2013 When you bite down, your upper and lower teeth should come together evenly. If they don\u2019t, then you likely have an open bite. While traditional braces are sometimes needed, Invisalign clear aligners can usually deliver the same results for patients with more mild cases.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Find Out If You\u2019re a Candidate for Invisalign<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your teeth or bite aren\u2019t aligned properly and you\u2019re interested in Invisalign, there\u2019s only one thing left to do: schedule a consultation with an experienced, talented, and compassionate Invisalign provider! At your visit, they will review your dental history, take a look at your most recent X-rays, and examine your teeth and gums. From there, they can determine if you\u2019re a good candidate for clear aligner treatment. If you are, then they will get to work creating your custom treatment plan and answer any questions you have before officially beginning the teeth-straightening process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our team at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodmandentalcare.com\/\">Goodman Dental Care<\/a> is led by Drs.
