After braces abit dissapointed.

#1 Post by 88oscar »

Im happy with how straight my top arch is now but my front teeth dont touch my bottom teeth anymore. When i bite together my molar on my left side touches and nothing else. Anyone know what can be done about this issue? I was Inman Aligner braced for my top teeth not my bottom as they wee all straight anyway.

maybe a second opinion from another ortho is in order? I think your teeth should touch when you're all done.

Not true in my case. My molars didn't touch when I was done. They do now in my retention period.

Having same issue, I have to over close my mouth for my teeth to touch and to chew. It causes much discomfort and is not aesthetically pleasing in my opinion.
