Treatable Bite Issue Cases

Crossbite

When you bite down, do your top teeth position themselves inside your bottom teeth? If so, you may have what’s known as a crossbite.

Fix crooked teeth or generally straighter teeth. Teeth straightening is a general term used to describe an orthodontic process that corrects irregularities of the teeth. These irregularities tend to be caused by a malocclusion, which is a misalignment of your teeth and bite.

Crowded Teeth

Teeth crowding is the general term used to describe teeth that are packed too tightly in the jaw. When teeth run out of space, they start pressing together and shifting in front of and behind one another, resulting in crooked or overlapping teeth.

Gap Teeth

Gap teeth, called diastema, are extremely common. Some consider a gap between their teeth to be their signature feature. But, for others, spaced teeth can cause aesthetic concerns or even signal an underlying problem if the gap between teeth is getting bigger.

Underbite

An underbite is when you close your mouth and your lower front teeth are in front of your upper teeth. In many cases, this is actually a problem with your lower jaw being too far forward.

Overbite

An overbite is when the upper front teeth cover more of the lower front teeth than would usually be considered ‘ideal’. Dentists refer to overbite teeth as a type of malocclusion.

Open Bite

If your upper and lower teeth don’t touch when your mouth is closed, your doctor calls this an open bite.

I’ve be coming to Dental Corner since I moved here from California 10 years ago. I even moved an hour away, but it’s worth the trip. Great staff makes you feel very comfortable. From humble beginnings to state of the art Procedures. Looking forward to the next 10 years.

10/10! I went in last minute in horrible pain and they fit me right in. I think I was in the waiting for for 2 minutes. They immediately took X-rays and started the numbing process. I’ve never been so happy to get shots in the mouth 😂. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful they explained what they could do and the price point and varying options before doing any work. The building was clean and neat and the rooms were also very clean. Would definitely recommend

I absolutely have nothing but good things to say. The staff is SO friendly and helpful and Dr. Barber is truly outstanding. She cares and they all go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. You will not regret going to the Dental Corner.

I’ve been coming here for the past 3 years and I love it! I had my wisdom teeth take out and they made sure I had my medication and checked up on me after.They are always friendly, attentive and professional.

I went to the Dental Corner in excruciating pain, I was so grateful they fit me into their schedule as emergency care, this is when I met Dr Motaref and his staff. I share with you from the receptionist to the dental staff, all were exceptional in every way. I had my final visit today, I literally feel my mouth is “happy”. I am so grateful and highly recommend you give them a call the next time you need dental care.
