The treatments can range in a spectrum of simple to advanced work. The best treatment for you will be conservative, preservative of your teeth and achieve optimal results with minimal dentistry.
Overbite correction without surgery:
- Veneer overbite correction. Restorative dentistry using ceramic material can be used to reshape your teeth to re-establish a better overbite and overjet. Veneers can both be corrective of overbites and improve the appearance of your smile. Click here for more
- Braces to fix overbite. Adult orthodontic braces can be used to correct any abnormalities in your overbite or overjet. Teeth are simply reposition using either aligners or braces.
- Bite adjustments. Sometimes interfering structural discrepancies on back teeth can cause problems in the front of the mouth. Simple corrective bite adjustments or protective night guards can help prevent further damage on your teeth. However, sometimes these discrepancies require some restorative fillings or crowns to help give an improved balanced bite.

Next: Importance of Overbite Correction
I have been visiting Perfect Smile for couple years for on going treatment including implants and Veneers. I developed an abscess over Christmas Holiday with a fever where I passed out on my kitchen floor. I did email Gurs not expecting him to reply within an hour or so (especially it being the festive season) Gurs suggested I should get to the hospital to get antibiotics and emergency dentist next day. Gurs kept in touch daily to check on my welfare. A week later I was well enough to travel from Norfolk to Perfect Smile. The following week Negan did root canal. The team are first class, who make you welcome and always asking if I would like a drink. The treatment has cost me thousands. Money well spent!! I now have The Perfect Smile.
I live in London so it was no problem visiting them at Harley Street, I was a bit nervous when I walked in but it all went fine and I now have no more gaps in my teeth, many thanks
