Question: What do they do with braces for under bites!?
I've had my spacers since Thursday and get my braces October 9!. I want metallic blue and metallic green!. I'm developing an under bite so they are giving me braces!. Will I have to get a train track!? If so, what is that!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
i think they'd use rubber bands to connect your top and bottom teeth to pull them in the needed direction!.
i had an overbite and that's what they did!. i'd think they'd do the same thing in the opposite direction for you!.
yes, it was a train track on top and bottom, but that was many years back! they are always improving the technology, so you might get something better these days!.
every time i went to the orthodontist to get them tightened, my teeth would hurt so much i had to eat only soup for 2 days!. :(Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think they may apply the braces to the back of your teeth so they push forward and even out with your other jaw (under bite) but I'm not positve!. I had an over bite when I was a pre-teen and the braces helped!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
