Overbite

What is overbite?

Class 2 malocclusion (overbite) is when the lower teeth are positioned too far behind the upper teeth. This is most often due to the lower jaw being too small

Treatment

Orthognathic surgery (jaw surgery) for overbite

The specific treatment for overbite depends on the overall proportions of your upper jaw, your lower jaw, and your chin. Surgery can include any of the following techniques:

✅ LeFort 1 osteotomy (upper jaw surgery)

✅ Bilateral sagittal split osteotomy (BSSO - lower jaw surgery)

✅ Genioplasty (chin surgery)
