BRACES/OVERBITE, helphelp.

Question

k well, i got my braces on 5 years ago, and i had crooked teeth and a HUUUUGE overbite. im getting my braces off in 4 days. my teeth are really straight but i still have a decent overbite. but i'm getting a retainer, will it get rid of the remaining overbite?

Answer 1

Oh that's good. So you're seeing SOME results, right? :)

I'm not sure if the retainer alone will get rid of your overbite. All I know is that when my aunt had an overbite, she used one (or something similar to it... I'm not 100 percent sure if it was a retainer or something else) and it fixed it.

At least you don't have an UNDERBITE which is worse because it requires surgery.
