Hi, I am meant to be debanded in the next month however I still have a 4mm overjet. My lowers have been debonded already. Will they need to reinstall the lower brackets to correct my overjet?

Did you have an overjet prior to ortho. If not, start screaming now. Ortho shoudl not have been done on me. I'm class II and was left with a 6 mm overjet. I don't know what to do. Very upset. See if they can shave the teeth down a little, extract a tooth. I have none to extract, or else you're stuck.

The overjet was always there, thats why I started treatment as I hated it. There seems to be room to pull the teeth back. Ill get another appointment and try to moan about it.
