Can Invisalign Express Fix an Overbite?

Invisalign Express is for cases that take 10 aligners or less.  As a rule, overbites are harder to do with Invisalign compared to traditional braces.  Even with traditional braces, correcting an overbite takes time.  Add Invisalign into the mix and it is highly unlikely that Invisalign Express would work.

Consult with an orthodontist to know for sure, but I would not think it is likely.

Hello,

I do not think the Invisalign will close the overbite all the way...it may decrease it. However you may require jaw surgery.

Thank you,

Its doubtful whether the express case would do the job. I would need to review the clinchek to see if you qualify. Usually a full case is more appropriate for this type of treatment...

Overbites may be more difficult to correct with braces or Invisalign than many other types of problems, but sometimes creative solutions can make a difference.  It could be that Invisalign Express could correct the problem AFTER using what is called a Biteplate 24/7 for several months, then doing the Invisalign or Invisalign Express.  Your Invisalign certified dentist or orthodontist in Phoenix should evaluate and consider what I said as a possibility.

No! Express cases are not designed to fix anterior/posterior descrepancies. You need a full course of treatment to fix the problem. Invisalign and fixed appliance can be used.
