Orthodontic issue
I had braces 8 years ago and got my Crookes teeth straightened after removal of four teeth (upper and lower jaw included.
Now, it seems like due to relapse my teeth are protruding like my overbite returned.
I'd like to know if this is a legit overbite,if yes what kind? ( Skeletal or dental) and what are my options to treat this.
Hello mam, actually this is a typical case of dental orthodontic relapse which usually happena either bcoz of not consistently wearing retainers or due to the unstable bite...and you will mostly have to go for re orthodontic treatment to correct the allignment. Will have to see ur opg amd your clinical aspect of the teeth to comment better.
