Malocclusions

Differentiation:

  • Malaligned teeth
  • Incorrect postioning of the jaws
  • A combination of the above

A thorough diagnosis is necessary to define the problems und to design a treatmentplan. The first consultation is free.

Examples:

Fig.1: normale Verzahnung Fig.2: Klasse 2 - Verzahnung mit Frontzahnstufe.
Fig.1: Regular occlusion Fig.2: Klasse 2 - Class 2 dentition with overjet.
It is either the upper jaw too far forward or the lower jaw too far back or a combination of both.

Fig.3: Klasse 2 - Verzahnung mit Deckbiss. Fig.4 : Klasse 3 - Verzahnung.
Fig.3: Class 2 dentition with coverbite. Usually the lower arch is too far back.
Fig.4 : Class 3 dentition. In two thirds of the cases the upper jaw is too far back, in one third the lower jaw is too far forward.
