My dental overbite? ?!
Question: My dental overbite!? !?
Well, when i first had my measurments took for my braces my dentist told me that; the average space between a persons upper teeth and lower teeth is 3mm!. When i say this, i mean like the space when you bite down!.
Mine, however, was 8mm, because i sucked my thumb alot when i was younger!. I was wondering what Class of an overbite it was!?

Answers:
It sounds like a class II bite with overjet and openbite!. (If the teeth do not overlap, there is not an overbite!.) Overbite refers to how much the teeth overlap vertically!. Overjet refers to how much the front teeth protrude in in front of the lower teeth!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
