Dilemma

[Deleted member 616]

Since I have an overbite, when I clench my teeth together, I'll have a clearly recessed chin and invisible mandibles, but my cheekbones look more defined and I get hollow cheeks. However, when I put my jaw forward with only my front teeth touching each other, my chin and jaw look fine. But in this case, I practically have no hollow cheeks anymore.

Anyone has the similar problem?

This is how my teeth look in case 1:

In case 2 (my back teeth don't meet)

I have recessed lower third without bite problems.

My lower third looks recessed when I'm chewing, but it looks fine in natural state.

i have the exact same problem as you dude, my orthodontist removed my braces before my overbite was fixed, I didn't know at the time, no I'm pissed at her.
went to a new dentist 2 weeks ago, he said I have the deepest overbite he's ever seen

How can we fix this shit? I have my braces in for 1.5 years and still have an overbite

isn't a slight overbite ideal though? my back teeth line up perfectly and I have a slight overbite

Genio will fix chin hopefully, maybe a BSSO could help

tbh tho depends on your whole face, if you have a gummy smile you might go lefort 1 osteomety with genio or even with BSSO

as you can see in the op's picture his lower teeth are touching his gums on top this is caused by a recessed mandible thus being classified as a class 2 malocclusion

Genio

how much does that shit cost?

you have to wear elastics for your mandible to shift, also your maxilla can shift back too, this shit happened to me

Genio is less than 2-2.5k at EE, not sure how good surgeons are here.

genio just changes your chin wtf doesn't fix malocclusion

I have been wearing elastics the whole time, mandible can shift forward but how does it bring our back teeth together?

elastics just make your mandible grow forward, in some rare cases it can make your maxilla go backwards too, resulting in poor forward growth

Yeah I edited my comment bc it wasn't great. Genio can help with appearance of weak chin, caused by malocclusion...


Look up BSSO surgery as well for malocclusion... The reality is you will likely need surgery coupled with other orthodontic methods to get a good result.

I know slideshare is filled with a lot of Indian shit, but check this slide and start at pages 43-45 for treatment options. It all depends on your mouth tbh... https://www.slideshare.net/zeinaabo...7f-489d-8ac0-2ef83f784d30&v=&b=&from_search=1

we dont have myobrace in our country, best I could hope for is some shitty one from aliexpress, you need checkups at your dentist to keep adjusting the myobrace

That's not an overbite. Front teeth aren't supposed to be right on top of each other lol

real braces cost way more anyway, that's still relatively cheap, even here
