An open bite means some upper and lower teeth do not meet when you close your mouth. It may affect biting into food and the way the teeth function. There is no single treatment that is right for every open bite.
Can clear aligners help?
Invisalign includes open bite among the conditions its clear aligners may treat. That is a starting point, not a promise that aligners are right for your bite. The cause, severity, jaw relationship, and health of your teeth all matter.
What happens at a consultation?
Dr. Wolkoff will listen to what concerns you, look at your teeth and bite, and discuss whether clear aligner treatment is appropriate. Some cases may call for a different orthodontic approach or a specialist referral. You will hear the options and limits before deciding.
Why an individual plan matters
Open bites vary. Two smiles that look similar in a photo can require different treatment paths. We focus on a careful diagnosis, realistic expectations, and a plan you understand.
