Can Invisalign® Fix Overbites and Other Bite Issues?

If you’ve been considering Invisalign^® to straighten your teeth, you may be wondering if it can also correct bite problems like overbites, underbites, crossbites or open bites. At Shine Family Dentistry in Garner, NC, we’re proud to offer Invisalign^® as a discreet, effective option that can address tooth alignment and many common bite issues.

How Invisalign^® Corrects Bite Problems

Invisalign^® uses a series of clear, custom-made aligners to gradually shift your teeth into their ideal position. When worn as directed, these aligners apply gentle, consistent pressure that can also move your bite into better alignment.

Overbite

An overbite occurs when the upper front teeth extend too far over the lower teeth. Invisalign® aligners can reposition both arches to create a balanced bite, improving function and appearance.

Underbite

An underbite happens when the lower teeth overlap the upper teeth. Invisalign^® can guide the teeth into a more natural position, reducing uneven wear and strain on the jaw.

Crossbite

With a crossbite, some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when you bite down. Invisalign^® can help move the teeth into proper alignment, preventing chips, cracks and uneven enamel wear.

Open Bite

An open bite occurs when the front teeth do not meet when the back teeth are together. Invisalign^® aligners can bring the teeth into contact, improving function and overall smile aesthetics.
