Teeth are biting properly, and the top and bottom teeth are aligned, but the teeth are crooked, twisted, or crowded together.
Also sometimes called a deep bite or buck teeth. In this class, the upper teeth are pushing forward and not meeting properly with the bottom teeth, and are instead biting over the lower teeth.
This is similar to an overbite, except that the lower teeth are positioned too far forward.
This is similar to an underbite, where the lower teeth are out in front of the upper teeth. For a proper bite, the front teeth should be forward and in front of the lower teeth when you bite.
Sometimes a patient has a gap between two teeth or even small gaps between several teeth. A gap between the two front teeth can be unsightly but is easy to correct with braces.
“I have been taking my son to A Perfect Smile with Doctor Taylor and all his staff. The team is pretty awesome. Every visit has turned out to be very smooth so far. Dr. Taylor always finds a way to create a conversation with my son to make him comfortable, even after applying the retainer/expander in his mouth.
“The assistants have also been very helpful and knowledgeable in the performance of the different procedures, from replacing the wire, to installing the braces, to actually placing the expander/retainer on the mouth cavity. As for the team, I am very happy with every one of them.
“Let’s talk about the building: Clean, cool, fresh, the flow of traffic is very smooth and restrooms are always nice and clean. The building comes with two waiting rooms and one theater. Yes, my kids love the theater. This is an excellent place to bring your kids for orthodontia.
“I recommend Dr. Taylor and his services. And as a final note, today’s assistant Alicia did an amazing job with my son’s teeth!”
– Oscar C.
Dr. David Taylor is a Board-Certified Orthodontist with more than 15 years of experience. He is widely recognized in the local community for providing high-quality orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults.
Traditional braces use a combination of metal brackets, wires, and elastic bands to gently guide teeth into proper alignment.
Brackets are placed on the teeth
A wire is secured with elastic bands
Gentle pressure moves teeth gradually
Periodic adjustments guide progress
Over time, your smile becomes straighter and your bite healthier.
