Medical Conditions - Overbite

The vertical measure of the maxillary and mandibular anterior overlap is known as an overbite. A normal overbite is usually 2 mm to 3 mm. Increased overbite is known as deep bite, and reduced or no overbite is an open bite. Both deep bite and open bite are malocclusions that need to be corrected. Overbite can be skeletal or dental. Ideal overbite can be achieved with orthodontic treatment with braces, Invisalign, retainers, headgears, and surgery.
