Bite Correction Treatment


Bite Correction 
    (Non-Surgical) An imbalance bite may increase bone destruction. You may be given a bite guard, a removable device that fits over upper and lower teeth, to protect teeth surfaces and relax tense jaw muscles. Or your bite may be adjusted so that your teeth meet properly and function better.

Stabilizing the Bite
 
When you bite all, teeth should touch evenly. If certain teeth are forced to carry more than their fair share of the load then they become more susceptible to bone loss. This can be resolved by "buffing off high spots", a procedure called a bite adjustment. If you have a tendency to clench or grind your teeth, that too, can put you at risk for future disease and a bite guard may be prescribed.
