Overbite and Gum Recession: Save Your Gums with Invisalign
February 5th, 2016
NO MATTER YOUR AGE, fixing your overbite will help you save your teeth and eliminate pain.
Severe Overbite Is An Orthodontic Emergency
Severe overbite (deep bite) causes gum recession by front teeth biting gums. This trauma produces gum loss (recession). Left untreated, gum and bone loss lead to tooth loss.
With severe overbite, upper front teeth eventually contact the front of the lower gums. This bite trauma causes gum loss.
With severe overbite, lower front teeth contact the roof of the mouth (impinging bite). Teeth bite the gum off the back of the upper front teeth causing pain.
Severe Overbite Can Lead To Tooth Loss
Left untreated, severe overbite leads to tooth loss. This is an orthodontic (bite), periodontic (gums), and dental (tooth) emergency.
Orthodontic treatment with Invisalign can immediately stop overbite traumatic gum recession. With the Invisalign treatment of your overbite, you can keep your teeth for life.
Not only that, you will have a beautiful new smile. You wil look years younger and feel fabulous!
