Misaligned bites can affect more than just your smile, they can impact your chewing, speech, and overall oral health. Common bite issues include overbites, underbites, and crossbites, which often require orthodontic treatment to correct.

 If you’re considering options beyond traditional braces, Invisalign and its innovative clear aligners may be the solution you’ve been searching for. At Dental Studio Scotland, a trusted dental group with six clinics across Ayrshire and Glasgow, we offer professional guidance and treatment using this advanced orthodontic approach.

Understanding Bite Issues: Overbites, Underbites, and Crossbites

Overbite: When the upper front teeth extend significantly over the lower teeth.

Underbite: When the lower teeth extend beyond the upper teeth.

Crossbite: When some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when biting down.

These conditions can lead to uneven wear on teeth, jaw discomfort, and difficulty chewing, making effective treatment important for long-term dental health.

How Does Invisalign Work for Bite Correction?

Invisalign uses a series of custom-made clear aligners that gently shift teeth into alignment. These trays are virtually invisible and removable, providing convenience and discretion during treatment. Unlike traditional braces, which use metal brackets and wires, Invisalign’s smooth plastic aligners allow for easier maintenance of oral hygiene.

At Dental Studio Scotland, our experienced orthodontics team assesses each case to determine if Invisalign is suitable for your bite correction needs. Invisalign is particularly effective for mild to moderate bite issues, including Invisalign for overbite correction.

Can Invisalign Fix Overbites?

Yes, Invisalign can address many overbite cases by gradually repositioning the teeth and jaw. Treatment typically involves a series of aligners worn for about 22 hours daily, with progress monitored regularly. The clear aligners apply gentle, controlled pressure, encouraging the teeth to move into an improved position over time. While Invisalign is highly effective for many, severe overbites may require additional orthodontic interventions.

What About Underbites and Crossbites?

Underbites and crossbites can also be corrected with Invisalign, although the treatment plan may be more complex. At Dental Studio Scotland, we provide a thorough examination to tailor your Invisalign journey. For some cases, Invisalign is combined with other orthodontic techniques to achieve optimal results.
