Is it possible for deep bites to be corrected with Invisalign G5? (Photo)

Question

I have a deep overbite and read that it was possible for invisalign to fix a deep overbite with something called G5. The technology uses bite ramps (among other things) to have better control over fixing deep bites. Is this true? and is it available to everyone?

Dear linkedon1,Thank you for posting your question on Real Self.  I will do my best to answer your question with the information provided.It appears in the picture that you do have a deep bite, and Invisalign over the years has been quite successful at treating deep bites.  I recommend consulting with an orthodontist in your area to do a more thorough examination to see what treatment modality is best for your individual needs.I hope that this helps and good luck.Best,Dr. Jenn

Thank you for sharing your picture.  Although I can see that you have a deep bite I cannot see the rest of your teeth and face to give you an accurate response.  You can get a virtual movie called a clin-check to see if invisalign will work for you.  They have improved the technology and it is automatically added to every clinchick.

You are correct--Invisalign can work quite well for you--It also looks like your other teeth are positioned nicely as well to make you a very good candidate for invisalign--Good luck--Dr John Merrill
