- Traditional Braces Didn't Work: I have an overbite. My front and bottom teeth seem to jut forward. The bottom teeth aren't that bad but the top makes me self-conscious. My top teeth do not touch my bottom teeth at all. I'm nineteen years old and I've had braces, though they don't seem to have worked very well. I would like an alternative to braces for aesthetic reasons. My question is: Are braces a definite treatment procedure or will something more drastic like surgery be required also, now that I'm nearly out of my teens? ... Visitor from NY (answer)
- Failed Orthodontic Treatment - Overbite: I am 20 years old and I had braces for nearly 2 1/2 years. My teeth are big kinda like Julia Roberts and I thought that getting braces would fix my teeth perfectly. However, after the braces were removed I had a weird overbite. My upper nad lower teeth are angled outwards and sometime when I smile it looks "horse-like". My orthodontist suggests that I have to remove 8 teeth total to move my teeth back because the space has to be made between the incissors. Is there any other way to fix this problem? I dont want to remove so many teeth and I dont know what I should do, because I really want to fix my teeth. Please help! ... Visitor from NJ (answer)
