Many people think orthodontics is just about straightening crooked teeth, but there’s much more to it than that. Due to a variety of factors out of our control, our teeth and jaws often develop in a way that provides a problematic bite. Sometimes the dental arch at the top or bottom is too narrow, or a patient has overbite (when the upper teeth overlap the lower teeth too much), underbite (when the lower jaw or bottom teeth jut forward and align in front of the top teeth), and crossbite (when the teeth overlap incorrectly on the sides). We use specially designed appliances that gently guide the jaw and teeth into proper alignment while the patient is a child or teen, to prevent serious issues in the future.Raman Orthodontics
