When the top front teeth don’t close over the bottom teeth.

When the bottom teeth sit forward of the top teeth.

A crossbite happens when one or more of your upper teeth sit inside of your lower teeth.

When the top teeth protrude too far forward of the bottom teeth.

An overbite happens when the top teeth come so far down that they hide most of your bottom teeth.

Gaps between teeth may be caused in different ways – small teeth, missing teeth, or large frenum (if the band of gum between your upper central teeth is unusually large).

Crowding occurs when there isn’t enough room in the jaw for all the teeth, causing them to bunch together, overlap, or twist out of position.

When the adult tooth is trying to come through, but there isn’t enough room, it can often poke out of the top of the gum.

Sometimes an adult or baby tooth can remain hidden below the gum line and can only be identified with an x-ray.

A narrow upper arch occurs when the upper jaw is too constricted, which can crowd the teeth and affect how the upper and lower teeth come together.
