Before
As you can see, this patient displayed an abnormally large "overbite". A situation like this has profound effects on facial and profile esthetics, as well as tongue posture relating to speech and swallowing. It is evident that the lips do not match because of the effect the extreme forward positioning the upper teeth have on lip posture.

After
Our patient was treated with full braces. The upper teeth were brought back into a normal "overbite" relationship to the lower. You can also see the harrnonious effect on the facial profile with the lips now in proper balance to each other. A lifetime with a beautiful smile.
