i went to get invisalign, and they said i wasnt a candidate because of an overbite.. well i could ge tit, but it wouldnt fix my overbite... and inturn..... make my bottom teeth collapse. So i went to get a "twin block" Its a device that is used to move your jaw to where it should be (i had quite a server overbite). As much as its a pain it really does work. I'm getting it off in 1.5 months and getting braces... so no collapsing teeth for me.

nope, i jsut went ot the orthodontist less than a week ago, and asked for invisalign. Tyhey said I can't have it because i have a slight overbite. They told me it can't fix bites, only crooked teeth.

No, I know. I have overbite, just went to the dentist and I have to get conventional braces!

No - they will have to break your jaw in 1/2 to fix overbites!

They might, but they are a lot slower than braces, and if that is the only thing wrong with your teeth, it shouldn't take any time at all.

Only a dentist can tell you after looking at your teeth...everyone is different.

WHETHER OR NOT YOUR OVERBITE CAN BE REPAIRED DEPENDS ON THE SEVERITY AND THE TYPE OF OVERBITE YOU HAVE, PLEASE MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH AN INVISALIGN-CERTIFIED DENTIST FOR AN EXAM.
