Facial asymmetry due to overbite

2021-01-20 15:46:38
My face has become asymetric because of overbite. I am currently using anterior bite plate for overbite correction. Once my bite is fixed will facial asymmetry also be reversed?

Asymmetry might be due to strain in muscles during treatment. It can be reversed by proper exercises.
Next Steps
Please consult your orthodontist for those exercises. Don't discontinue the treatment.
Health Tips
Instead of bite plane go for fixed braces method for faster treatment after proper investigation Hope this helps you
