What Invisalign Treats

Invisalign can treat a very wide range of problems resulting from misalignment of teeth. To learn more about what invisalign treats, see our invisalign page.

Overbite

what invisalign treatsThis is when the upper teeth sit in front of the lower teeth. When the person bites down, the upper teeth come over the lower teeth and there is not a proper bite occuring, Overbite is normally caused by either a) genetics b) poor oral care or c) overdevelopment of the jawbone that holds the teeth. In addition to cosmetic reasons to correct this, it can cause painful jaw and joint problems as well as gum problems and sometimes wear on the lower teeth which are being impacted. 

Underbite

underbiteUnderbite is the reverse of overbite above. When a person with underbite closes his teeth together, the lower teeth slip over the upper teeth. As with overbite this can cause jaw and and jaw joint issues as well are tooth wear. 

Gaps in Teeth

gapped-teethGaps between teeth can be caused my missing teeth, causing other teeth to move to fill the empty space . Gaps can also come from abnormal jawbone growth. In either case the teeth no longer properly protect the gum and again in addition to cosmetic reasons for correcting this important health issues such as periodonatal disease can come from gaps in teeth. 

Open Bite

open-bite-tcOpen bite is when teeth that are supposed to come together do not, leaving open space between the teeth. This can cause problems with chewing, and even speech impairment. It can also lead to greater issues like problems with the jaw joint (the thermo-mandibular joint, often referred to as TMJ problems).

Teeth Overly Crowded 

overly-crowded-teethWhen there is not enough room in your jaw for all your teeth, then over-crowding results. Teeth get pushed around and you can end up over time with very crooked teeth, Also the way that teeth get jammed up against each other can make it hard to properly brush and floss resulting in more problems with tooth decay and plaque. 

Crossbite

 crossbite-tcCrossbite can occur when the upper and lower jaws are both misaligned. It causes one or more upper teeth to bite on the inside of the lower teeth, and can happen on both the front and the sides of the mouth. This can cause wear of the teeth, gum disease and bone loss.
