Common Orthodontic Problems
Orthodontic issues are more than just aesthetic concerns—they can affect your oral health, comfort, and overall quality of life. Misaligned teeth and jaw irregularities can lead to difficulties in chewing, speaking, and maintaining proper oral hygiene, which may increase the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Recognizing these common orthodontic problems is the first step toward effective treatment and achieving a healthy, confident smile. At Jeiroudi Orthodontic Center, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of orthodontic conditions. Below are some of the most common issues we address
Normal Bite

Crowding
Crowding Occurs when there is insufficient space for all the teeth, causing them to overlap.
Cross Bite
Overbite is when the upper front teeth protrude too far over the lower teeth.
Overbite
Underbite is when the lower jaw extends beyond the upper jaw, causing the lower teeth to sit in front of the upper teeth.

Open Bite

Spaces / Gaps
Occur when there is too much space in the jaw for the size of the erupting teeth, leading to gaps between teeth.
