What is an Overjet?
An overjet is when the upper teeth protrude forward and sit in front of the bottom teeth. An overjet can not only affect your appearance, but can also cause difficulty chewing, drinking, and biting.
Causes
Often referred to as “buck teeth” an overjet is frequently cause by a habit like thumb-sucking that pushed the front teeth out of healthy alignment.
If you don’t fix it
Moderate cases can cause uneven tooth wear and severe cases can lead to jaw pain. Many people are also self-conscious of their overjet.
How to correct an Overjet
Treatment with a Reveal® Clear Aligner can be a very effective way to correct an overjet and bring the teeth back to a healthy alignment.
