Common orthodontic problems include crowding, excessive spacing, crossbite, open bite, deep bite, underbite, and abnormal eruption. Orthodontic treatment can correct these issues to improve functioning and appearance by properly aligning teeth and jaws. Crowding occurs when there is not enough space for teeth, while excessive spacing has too much space. Crossbite is when upper teeth are inside lower teeth. Open bite means upper and lower teeth do not touch when mouth is closed. Deep bite causes upper front teeth to bite deeply into lower front teeth.

• Crowding
• Excessive spacing
• Cross bite
• Open bite
• Deep bite

• Abnormal eruption

4. crowding
• crowding is the lack of space for all
the teeth to fit normally within jaws.
This leads to teeth may be displaced
or rotated.
• Braces are used to prevent crowding
and correction of crowding prevents
dental decay and periodontal
diseases.

5. Excessive Spacing
• Spacing is opposite to crowding
and excessing space is available
between the teeth.
• By using orthodontic treatment,
moving the teeth together and
aligning properly within the jaws
closes the space.

6. Cross Bite
• When Upper teeth sit inside
the lower teeth results in cross
bite.
• This cross bite which may
causes tooth stratification and
misaligned jaw growth.

7. Open Bite
• Open bite is said to be when
your upper and lower teeth don’t
touch when your mouth is
closed.
• This open bite is caused due to
thumb sucking, tongue thrusting,
skeletal problems and TMJ
disorders.

8. Deep Bite
• Deep bite is a condition where
your upper front teeth bite
deeply over the lower front
teeth.
• This caused due to large top
jaw, tight muscular patterns and
a missing lower jaw.

9. Abnormal Eruption
• Abnormal eruption is when a
tooth emerges through the
gum in the wrong place.
• Abnormal eruption may cause
when the tooth is blocked from
growing in fully.
