Do you have to get braces if a over bite?

An overbite is a common dental condition where the upper front teeth overlap the lower front teeth. The severity of an overbite can vary, and in some cases, it may not require treatment. However, in more severe cases, an overbite can cause a number of problems, including:

- Jaw pain

- Toothaches

- Headaches

- Gum disease

- Difficulty chewing and speaking

Braces are a common treatment for overbites, and they can be effective in aligning the teeth and correcting the bite. In some cases, other treatments, such as surgery, may be necessary to correct an overbite.

Talk to your dentist or orthodontist to discuss your specific situation and determine if braces are the right treatment for you.
