I have dentures and I have a significant overbite. Can this be corrected? (Photo)

Question

I have dentures with two implants on the lower, I’ve only recently been able to wear the lower due to the implants healing. I now have a significant overbite which I never had before. Can this be corrected?

Scott Young, DDS · Answer

There are certainly ways to correct this issue.  I would call this to the attention of your dentist so they can put a plan in place to correct this issue.  Best of luck.

H. Ryan Kazemi, DMD · Answer

If you think your bite has changed, that should be checked out by your dentist and see if it can be adjusted or perhaps need to have a new denture fabricated. The denture design should be based on your bite, function, lip support, and aesthetic requirements.
