Q. Hi im 13 im not quite sure if i have an overbite but my top teeth overlap my bottom ones but my teeth are quite straight and there isn’t any over crowding in my mouth but its giving me quite sore pain along my jaw and i keep hearing a kind of cruching sound everytime i move it i haven’t acctually mentioned it to my denist yet but do you think i’ll need braces or headgear or anything to help it??
A. This depends on how deep the over bite is, the crunching sound could be coming from a click in your jaw joint, so I would go back to your dentist and tell him you concerns so he can decide the best traetment for you
