A crossbite means some upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth instead of outside. It can affect a single tooth or a whole section of the arch — and aligners correct many of these cases comfortably.
Not sure which treatment fits your case? Book a visit — we will examine, explain, and plan it with you.
Front crossbites affect the smile line; back crossbites change how you chew. We locate the exact teeth involved with a scan and bite analysis first.
Trays widen or narrow arch segments and move individual teeth across the bite. Attachments and, in some plans, elastic wear add the extra force crossbites need.
Single-tooth crossbites may resolve in 6–9 months. Whole-arch cases usually take 12–18 months with regular progress checks.
Teeth meeting on the wrong surfaces grind each other abnormally. Correcting the crossbite early prevents sensitivity and fracture later.
Crossbites often shift the dental midline. Aligner plans correct the crossbite and re-centre the smile symmetry at the same time.
For younger patients, intercepting a crossbite early while the jaw is still developing makes correction simpler and faster.
The corrected bite holds with retainer wear. We will also check your bite at routine cleanings to confirm everything stays settled.
Our dentists combine modern diagnostics with gentle, patient-first care at every visit.
