Buck teeth corrected with Adult Braces

Condition:

The patient’s teeth were overlapping appearing like buck teeth, jaw also had a noticeable under-bite.

Treatment:

12-month application of braces to straighten and align teeth and jaw for a fuller and more proportionate smile.

Summary:

This patient had bucky-like teeth all her life. Early intervention at a young age would have been the best course of action. Starting at 23 however, she was always embarrassed to smile due to her two front teeth overlapping with an underbite that overstated the upper teeth line.

A 12-month course of braces helped to correct her jaw, giving a more proportional facial structure, and a beautiful side angle profile. At the same time her teeth were corrected and straightened, allowing her to smile with a broader and whiter gleam, eliminating any lack of confidence in her smile she may have felt before.
