Fix Buck Teeth & Overbites in Northbridge & Forestville – Braces & Invisalign Solutions
Got buck teeth or an overbite that’s affecting your confidence or oral health? You’re not alone! Many people have protruding front teeth, and the good news is—there are effective ways to fix them.
At Orthodontix, our expert team, led by Dr Hammond, offers personalised orthodontic solutions in Northbridge and Forestville to help straighten your teeth and improve your bite.
What Causes Buck Teeth & Overbites?
Several factors can lead to buck teeth (protruding front teeth) or an overbite, including:
- Genetics – Sometimes, it just runs in the family!
- Thumb Sucking – Prolonged thumb sucking can push the upper teeth forward.
- Tongue Thrusting – When the tongue pushes against the front teeth, it can cause them to protrude.
- Small Lower Jaw – A smaller jaw can make the upper teeth look more prominent.
- Crowding – Not enough space for teeth can push the front ones forward.
Why Fix Buck Teeth?
Aside from appearance, buck teeth and overbites can cause:
✔️ Speech Issues – Difficulty pronouncing sounds like “s” and “f.”
✔️ Chewing Problems – Misalignment can make eating uncomfortable.
✔️ Increased Dental Risks – More exposure means a higher chance of tooth damage, decay, or gum disease.
✔️ Jaw Strain & Discomfort – An unbalanced bite can put stress on your jaw joints.
How to Straighten Buck Teeth & Fix an Overbite
The right orthodontic treatment depends on your unique needs. We offer a range of solutions, including:
🦷 Braces – The classic and most effective way to gradually shift teeth into alignment. Choose from metal or ceramic braces for a personalised treatment plan.
🦷 Invisalign – A discreet, removable option using clear aligners to gently move your teeth over time. Perfect for teens and adults who want a subtle treatment.
🦷 Expanders – If a small upper jaw is contributing to your overbite, an expander can help create more space and improve alignment.
🦷 Orthodontic Surgery – In severe cases, surgery may be needed for jaw realignment.
