JILL	They simply use braces to pull the top teeth back to where they should be, since there is no way to move the top jaw. Usually, they use either tiny springs, or rubber bands to aid in the gradual process. They had to remove two of my top teeth to do that, but I never wore headgears. They cannot correct it with surgery, just braces, the wire kind. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

besaw82	braces, head gear, and retainer...in that order.....good luck with the head gear, i've been there,done that. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

a4n_prid3	theres nothin 2 b scared of..try braces its expensive but they work..im having braces right now..it wasnt painful..xD i used to hav an over bite and now.. its been 13 months and its almost completely gone Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Zach N	Braces, and don't be scared, they just put braces on, not a big deal, also, they will put a rubber band on each side of your brackets on the braces to pull your jaw back into normal position. They did it with mine and it aligned my jaw back to where it should be about 70 to 80% of the way, not bad though, I didn't have much of an over bite, but I still have somewhat, my frontal teeth still cover about half of my lower teeth, which is common in a lot of people. Hope this helps. ~ZTR Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

.	Depends how bad it is. If you get braces though be prepared for alot of work, brushing after each meal, flossing daily in between those brackets, and a horrible odor often comes if too much bacteria builds up in the braces. If you are a very patient person, you should not have a problem with this. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Leslie	Don't worry, you'll most likely get braces. They hurt a little at first, but then they get loose and it's fine. Or, you may just need a retainer if the overbite isn't that bad. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

James A	I thought that was normal. Oh **** now I have to go to the ortho too. NOT everyones teeth can be HHHHH Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wireman1979	Often an overbite can be corrected with braces alone. In severe cases it may take more dental intervention. You will probably have to wear metal braces as the clear ones known as Invisalign don't work very well in most overbite cases. You will be able to better clean your teeth once your overbite is corrected and you will also have increased self-confidence as you will like the way your smile looks. I think you might be a teenager and in that case you will have your smile to look at for years to come and it is well worth the investment of a set of braces at this point in your life. This will only change your life for the better. Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ashley	every one is different, but they will probably put braces on your teeth and use rubberbands to correct the problem. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Senor Deppen	iono why but girls with overbites are really cute somtimes....hardly works the otherway around Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Hurricane	Oh no dont be scared at all! I had the same problem and although braces are not fun an overbite will not take too long to fix. Maybe 6 months to a year. You will not need surgery. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Akir	If they catch it early enough, (maybe 13 years old or so), they can use little devices(usually including braces along with other stuff to wear at night) to fix this overbite(depending on the severity). But if you're full grown, surgery will be required. I don't reccomend surgery though unless you look horrible with it. They're going to try to get you to do it. I had the same "problem" but it's not bad at all, and my jaw is fine now and I'm 21 years old. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

CaNdY jUnKiE	you shouldnt be scared, you might have braces and the way they fix your overbite is by wearing rubber bands which can be a b**ch cuz they can snap in your mouth and your mouth/jay will be sore cuz they are pulling forward no big deal i had an overbite due to sucking my thumb its not that bad trust me Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Oh snap!	Nope! No surgery (relief)....but yes you might get braces depending on how bad your overbite is. Most likely you will have those braces on your teeth pretty soon but trust me it's worth it!! =) good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

giavonny12	you will be fine because i have an overbite too and i wear braces the worst part will be wearing the rubber bands because they kind of align your bite your mouth will be kind of sore for a while but other than that you should be okay. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Klimpt	Well you shouldn't be scared because there are far worse things that could be wrong with you. But they might have to do surgery, they can't fix it with braces unless it is really minor. Braces only fix how straight your teeth are. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

NubNation	well do u have a BIG over bite and MESSED UP TEETH if u don't then leave it.. just don't get sucked in tho the dentist sales pitch they make u all scared and stuff....so u get them. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Toadsputum	Braces and rubberbands. Depending upon the severity you might need to have some teeth removed. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
