Do overbites need to be fixed?!


Question: Do overbites need to be fixed!?
I know i have an overbite!. My bottom teeth dont touch the roof of my mouth but they do touch the back of my front teeth!. So far at least they havent caused any problems/discomfort, so i was just wondering aside from cosmetic reasons, do i need to fix my overbite with braces!. Is it fine for people to just have an overbite!?

My teeth are otherwise pretty straight, so im thinking that at 19 unless i really need to fix it for health reasons, i dont think i'll want to get braces now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
If isn't causing you problems you'll be ok!. It also depends on deep the overbite is!. There are some people with bad overbites that need to be corrected!. There are many people with slight overbites and they look fine!. Ask your dentist about your overbite!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, i have one and i got it fixed i mean, theres millions of people that have them its not a life threat but it just looks better, to me i don't care how i look!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's up to you!., As long as you're not in any pain because of your teeth rubbing or something then no!. Ask a dentist to be sure!. My dad never fixed his because they wanted to pull his teeth & stuff & he's just fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It would just be for cosmetic reasons :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
