Do your top teeth have to be in front of your bottom teeth or can they lie perfectly on top to be perfect?

I am taking my braces off tomorrow because my 15s cruise leaves saturday. my orthodontist said my teeth were ready to remove the braces ad asked me to wear some rubber bands to keep the midline(huh..?). But i have noticed that my teeth have moved and now the top oes lie perfectly on the bottoms ones, not slightly in front like I see most people have them. is that ok? will he still be able to take the braces off or will we have to wait till they go slightly over?

I highly doubt your getting your braces off (sorry!) They really should not take them off. your top teeth are supposed to be slightly over the bottom ones. This really is a big deal. Your teeth really need to meet and %26quot;bite%26quot; up against each other in a certain way.


call them and tell them whats going on and see what they say and what they can do to get them off soon
Reply:Your best bet is to call your ortho and tell him about your problems.
Reply:wen ur top teeth are slightly in front of ur bottom teeth thats called an overbite...there is nothin wrong with that but it is better for ur top teeth to be directly on tp of ur bottom teeth..so yeah...let ur dentist take them off cuz u will have perfect teeth =-)
Reply:HELLO,


THIS IS KNOWN AS EDGE-TO-EDGE ALIGNMENT.


MOST PEOPLE HAVE A SLIGHT OVERBITE THAT ENABLES THEM TO EASILY BITE INTO SOMETHING THIN LIKE A LETTUCE LEAF OR GENTLY PULL OUT STAPLES OR OTHER SMALL OBJECTS WITH THEIR TEETH.


HAVING YOUR SITUATION IS NOT BAD, BUT IF YOU HAD AN OPEN BITE THIS WOULD BE TERRIBLE. YOUR TEETH WOULD NEVER TOUCH.
