Hi I have an overbite, would I be eligible for Invisalign?

Tuesday, February 8th, 2011
Q.

Hey there,

I want to know if I am eligible for Invisalign. I know it is very hard and vague but I have an overbite pretruding 5/6mm from the lower arch to the tip of the upper arch teeth. I prefer Invisalign to traditional metal braces as it is more comfortable. Would you be able to give me an idea of the pricing structure for overbites and their eligibility. It is a priority that I know I’m eligible before treaking out to a cosmetic dentist.

I look forward to your response.

What treatment would you recommend for crowded teeth and overbite?

Thursday, January 27th, 2011
Q.

I am 23 years old and have a very large overbite. I wore braces when I was in my teens n my teeth were straight for a while but now one of my front teeth is sticking out and sticks over my bottom lip slightly. My bottom row of teeth is slightly overcrowded but the top is a lot worse. What treatment do you recomend ? I dont think braces are an option now as they are too far out ? Would veneers work and if so would I still have a large overbite ? Please help I am depressed about this and would like to see someone as soon as possible.

I am 54, am i too old for orthodontic treatment and how much will it cost?

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011
Q.

I am 54 years old and have had a severe overbite all my life – my teeth always look dreadful and I hate having my photogrpah taken or having to smile when people are watching. I never had a chance to have orthodontic treatment – it didn’t happen when I was young in the same way it does now. Alos my teeth ache because my bite is so out of line.

Two questions

1 Is it possible to have orthodontic treatment at my age?
2 How much would it cost – this will probably prevent me having it done and I don’t suppose any of this gets done on NHS.

Any help appreciated.

My overbite is about 15mm
