Underbites

Underbites occur when the lower row of teeth significantly overlaps the upper row. This is less common than overbites, but involves the same chewing issues, speech impediments, and jaw pain that overbites do. 

Chins are often pressed forward in an underbite, which forces the entire head to sink lower. As a result, headaches and pain in the ears and face are common problems accompanying underbites.

To treat underbites, we offer Braces and Aligners. Please contact us for a consultation or appointment.
