In order for your mouth to function optimally and look its best, your bite should also be healthy. But what if you have an overbite or another type of bite problem? Can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenusmiles.com\/nu-smile-aligners-for-adults.html\">Nu Smile Aligners<\/a> help? In many cases, yes, they can! This blog post discusses what you can expect during the treatment process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Nu Smile Works to Fix Bite Problems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Malocclusions (bite problems) occur when the upper and lower teeth, as well as the upper and lower jawbones, do not work harmoniously together. The purpose of orthodontic treatment is to shift the teeth and possibly reposition the lower jaw in order to improve a patient\u2019s bite and facial profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nu Smile Aligners apply gentle pressure to the teeth in order to shift them in a way that promotes a healthy bite. They can often work alongside accessories to train the lower jaw to rest in its proper position. For example, you might need to wear rubber bands to correct your overbite or underbite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are directed to use special accessories along with your Nu Smile clear aligners, it is important that you follow instructions. Otherwise, your results may be unsatisfactory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the details of your case, it may take up to a year or longer for your treatment to completely correct your malocclusion and align your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can Nu Smile Aligners Correct All Bite Problems?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nu Smile Aligners can correct many mild to moderate cases of overbite, underbite, crossbite, open bite, and other types of malocclusions. However, they are not ideal for every patient. If your bite problem is severe enough, you may need traditional orthodontic care to achieve the best results. (After you wear braces for a while, you might be able to switch to Nu Smile Aligners.) In some cases, jaw surgery is even necessary in order to correct very serious cases of bite misalignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you visit us for a Nu Smile consultation, we can let you know whether clear aligners are suitable for you. If they are not, we can recommend your next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you ready to say goodbye to bite problems? Nu Smile Aligners might be the effective and discreet solution that you are looking for!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Meet the Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Admasu Gizachew, affectionately known as Dr. G, invented the Nu Smile system with the goal of offering affordable, high-quality clear aligner treatment to the communities we serve.
