Common Orthodontic Issues
- Conveniently Located On Madison Ave. Between Sunrise & Fair Oaks
Orthodontic problems can affect anyone – in fact, our teeth are rarely naturally perfect. Malocclusion, or a “bad bite”, can cause problems with chewing, oral hygiene, speaking, and aesthetics. A misaligned bite can be genetic or can be caused by thumb sucking, dental disease, poor dental hygiene, accidents, birth defects, or other medical conditions.
Being educated about the orthodontic problem you or your child may have is the first step to correcting it. Orthodontic treatment performed by Dr. Ryan Plewe can improve both the functionality of your bite and the appearance of your smile.
Below are some examples of the most common orthodontic problems.

An overbite is a common issue where the upper front teeth extend significantly beyond the lower front teeth when the mouth is closed. While a slight overbite is normal, excessive overbites can lead to dental and jaw issues, affecting both the aesthetics and functionality of the smile. We design a customized treatment plan, using braces, clear aligners, or other techniques.
An open bite is a condition where the upper and lower front teeth do not make contact when you close your mouth, leaving a noticeable gap. This misalignment can lead to speech and chewing difficulties, as well as aesthetic concerns. We craft a personalized treatment plan utilizing braces, clear aligners, or other techniques, to gently guide your teeth into perfect alignment.
A crossbite occurs when the upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when you close your mouth. This misalignment can lead to dental issues and affect the harmony of your smile. We design a personalized treatment plan that may involve braces, clear aligners, or other techniques to gently guide your teeth into place designing a smile you will love for years to come.
