Underbite Orthodontics in Newton & Concord
An underbite occurs when the lower front teeth sit ahead of the upper front teeth. Modern orthodontics offers effective, comfortable ways to encourage a more natural relationship between the upper and lower arches, improving appearance and function. With a personalized plan, you can enjoy a smile that feels aligned and looks balanced.
Why people correct an underbite
Refining the bite can make everyday life more comfortable and your smile more confident. Here are common reasons people choose treatment.
- Balanced profile. Aligning the arches can create a more harmonious facial appearance.
- Comfortable chewing. A coordinated bite helps teeth work together efficiently.
- Even wear. Proper alignment supports long-term tooth health.
- Clearer speech. Some people notice easier pronunciation as the bite improves.
Orthodontic paths to a coordinated bite
Your dentist evaluates growth, alignment, and goals to recommend a solution. Options may include clear aligners, braces, or combination approaches tailored to your needs.
- Comprehensive evaluation. Photos, scans, and measurements guide a precise plan.
- Custom appliances. Clear aligners or braces are selected based on what will move teeth most effectively.
- Phased progress. Planned steps guide the upper and lower arches toward a coordinated fit.
- Supportive check-ins. Regular visits keep everything moving comfortably and predictably.
