Fixing an underbite without surgery
An under bite is difficult to treat with braces or even surgery. However, Dr. Do can correct this problem without the need for invasive treatment. This is usually viewed as a cosmetic problem, and most cosmetic dentists are not trained for this protocol. Dentists that can use braces are usually trained to remove teeth from the lower jaw to fix this problem, but that can lead to another set of complications with your TMJ. We are fortunate at Manoa Dental that Dr. Do is trained in all three disciplines of orthodontic, TMJ, and cosmetic dentistry at one location.
