Cross bite
I have cross bite teeth and never had a problem with it. But now from almost an year I started having headaches because I unrealizingly keeping biting it hard especially while I'm asleep and wake up with a heavy head. Now I'm thinking if I should go for prosthetic treatment or it is not possible?

Hi..
Considering your age the cross bite still can be corrected naturally that means by orthodontic treatment.
So better go for orthodontic consultation first and then decide for other options.
Thank you
