SMILE DESIGN

Normally the upper teeth bite closely against the outer surface of the corresponding lower teeth. Anterior cross bite is where the upper front teeth bite inside the lower front teeth which can result in worn teeth and gum recession if in close contact, or loss of chewing function, compromised appearance and speech problems if there is a gap with the lower front teeth forward of the upper teeth... The side and back teeth (premolars and molars) can also be in cross bite affecting only one side, often associated with deviation of the lower jaw when biting together, or affecting both sides. These cross bites are usually due to a narrow upper jaw, sometimes associated with compromised nasal breathing, snoring and sleep apnoea...
