Treatment options for edge-to-edge bite

Bite plates or functional orthodontic appliances are often used to help guide jaw development in children. They guide the lower jaw forward and correct the facial muscles and bite with relevant appliances that use force in certain areas of the mouth. These treatments are most effective during active growth (the teen years) and are often combined with surgery in extreme cases where severe skeletal issues are present. 

If it’s the teeth that are the problem, rather than jaw development, traditional braces are used for more complex cases. Using wires and brackets, the teeth are moved into a more suitable alignment. 

Clear aligners are recommended for patients with mild to moderate edge-to-edge bite problems, especially when the front teeth are the main issue.

Clear aligners for edge-to-edge bites

instasmile Aligners, clear braces, provide a comfortable and invisible way to correct tooth position and mild to moderate edge-to-edge bites. By gradually shifting your teeth into a more desirable position, your bite will be improved, and your teeth will be protected from unnecessary and excessive wear. 

Designed by dental professionals and monitored completely remotely, they offer a more convenient and affordable way of altering the bite compared to traditional orthodontic methods. 

All smile assessments, impressions, and result monitoring are carried out from the comfort of your own home - no need for expensive or time-consuming dental visits.
