Preteen Deep Bite and Gummy Smile Correction in Kendall

This transitional dentition case for a preteen female addressed a malocclusion where the upper front teeth completely hid the lower front teeth, a condition known as a deep bite. Over a 30-month treatment period, comprehensive braces were utilized to upright the maxillary incisors, resolve the deep bite, and improve the vertical proportions of the smile. If you notice your child’s upper teeth totally hiding their lower teeth or they show excessive gum tissue when smiling, we invite you to schedule a personal evaluation to discuss how specialized care can improve their dental health.
