Should your overbite be fixed before getting crowns?

Question

I’ve been researching and decided that I like the ceramic crowning and would want to do 10 teeth. Would I need to fix my overbite before I get it done?

Hi:
Unfortunately without an X-ray and photo it is difficult to give you accurate advice.  Please post photo and X-ray of the area.
Best,

If you are planning on crowns on the front teeth, I would highly recommend correcting your bite prior to committing to crowns. The crowns can fail and the opposing teeth can wear down prematurely if the bite is not correct first.
