What is the ideal overbite Plz advice

Monday, October 19th, 2009
Q.
Dr. Patel, I have had braces now for about 2 years and my orthodontist plans to take them off in a few weeks. I feel I my upper teeth still overlap my bottom teeth too much. I discussed it with her but she just said it was within normal range. A lot of pictures I have been seeing of people that’s had braces have a more flat facial profile. What is the ideal overbite?

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I’ve had a molar tooth removed recently after it fractured from eating food. I took some photos with my camera to see if it was healing well and i noticed that at the base of the cavity it looked quite dark, almost silvery like my other fillings. Is it normal to be this colour?, could the dentist have just left the lower part of my tooth etc in my jaw? Can i send the photo to get your judgement? Thanks

What would be the reason for lock jaw pain Plz advice

Monday, October 12th, 2009
Q.

Ive an underbite is it possible to correct it in a jaw surgery?

Saturday, October 10th, 2009
Q.
Im 17 and I have a very prodruding jaw and can’t even smile because im so self concious, my face looks flat and my chin sticks out. I’ve tried to convince myself its not noticable but i have had a couple of people comment on it. I think i may have a very slight underbite but i can just make my top teeth go over the bottom one. Is it possible for me to get jaw surgery to correct it? It not purely costmetic because i do get an aching in my jaw as well. Would i be able to get this on the NHS? Or if i would have to pay how much would it cost?
