For demonstration purposes only.

What is an overbite?

An overbite is when your upper front teeth overlap with your lower front teeth. Most people have at least a little overbite.

What kinds of problems can an overbite cause?

When your overbite is too large, your doctor might tell you you have a deep bite. This can cause problems, from your teeth wearing down to pain in your jaw. Doctors use a percentage to describe overbites, and 5 to 25 percent is ideal.
