What Is an Overbite?

An overbite occurs when your upper front teeth overlap significantly with your lower front teeth. While a slight overbite is normal, a pronounced overbite (sometimes called “buck teeth”) can lead to functional and aesthetic concerns, including:

  • Difficulty chewing or biting: An overbite can make eating uncomfortable or inefficient.
  • Jaw pain or TMJ issues: Misaligned teeth can strain your jaw, leading to discomfort or chronic pain.
  • Speech challenges: Overbites may cause lisping or difficulty pronouncing certain sounds.
  • Tooth wear: Uneven pressure on teeth can cause premature enamel erosion.
  • Low self-esteem: Many people feel self-conscious about their smile.

There are two types of overbites:

  • Vertical Overbites: The upper teeth overlap the lower teeth vertically.
  • Horizontal Overbites: This refers to the condition when the upper teeth protrude forward over the lower teeth.
