    Overbite after treatment??

    Hi everyone, I just got my braces removed a couple of days ago, and I am really upset. It seems like I still have a slight to moderate overbite. I've included some pictures to see what you think. Please someone tell me I don't look like crap.1220111642.jpg1220111642a.jpg1222111440(1).jpg1222111513a.jpg

    Your teeth look great!!! It looks like you have a slight overbite (2 - 3mm), which is normal. It protects the teeth from getting worn down.

    It's normal to have a slight overbite. I will have one too, when my braces are off.
    Bonded retainers fitted upper and lower & braces removed at 19 months 2 weeks.

    Braces were:

    In-Ovation C on the top
    Damon on the bottom

    I always thought a slight overbite was normal. I think its weird when people's teeth line up directly.



    The Crime: Protruding upper canine, upper and lower crowding.
    Sentence: 2 years
    Fine: $4,100
    First day with brackets: 12/05/2011. 4 Extractions: 12/12/11. 1st Adjustment: 01/04/12. 2nd Adjustment: 2/15/12 Pulling the canine down. 3rd Adjustment 3/28/12 (canine's in the wire, and pulled into position!). 4th adjustment: 5/16/2012 (closing the gaps!)
