Can Aligners Fix My Specific Smile Issues? (e.g., Overbite, Crowding)

March 25, 2025

Considering clear aligners to address specific concerns about your smile, such as an overbite, crowding, gaps, or other alignment issues? You're likely wondering if NewSmile's discreet and convenient treatment can effectively address your individual needs. While traditional braces have long been the go-to solution for a wide range of orthodontic problems, clear aligner technology has advanced significantly. Let's explore some common smile issues and how NewSmile aligners can help.

Common Smile Issues That Aligners Can Address:

NewSmile clear aligners are designed to treat a variety of mild to moderate orthodontic issues effectively. Here are some of the common concerns we can help correct:

Crowding: This occurs when there isn't enough space in your jaw for all your teeth, causing them to overlap or bunch together. NewSmile aligners can gently create the necessary space and align your teeth properly.
Spacing (Gaps): Gaps between teeth can be caused by various factors. Aligners can help close these spaces, resulting in a more uniform and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Overbite: An overbite is when the upper front teeth significantly overlap the lower front teeth. NewSmile aligners can often correct mild to moderate overbites by gradually shifting the teeth into better alignment.
Underbite: An underbite occurs when the lower front teeth protrude beyond the upper front teeth. In some cases, aligners can be used to correct mild underbites.
Crossbite: A crossbite happens when some upper teeth sit inside the lower teeth when biting. Aligners can help realign the bite by moving the affected teeth into the correct positions.
Open Bite: An open bite is characterized by a vertical gap between the upper and lower front teeth when the back teeth are closed. Aligners can sometimes be used to close mild open bites.
General Misalignment: Even if you don't have a specific bite issue, aligners can help straighten teeth that are generally crooked or rotated.

How NewSmile Aligners Address These Issues:

NewSmile aligners work by applying gentle, consistent pressure to specific teeth, gradually moving them into the desired positions over time. Your personalized treatment plan, created by our dental professionals based on your initial impressions, will dictate the precise movements each aligner in the series will make.

Customized Force: Each aligner is meticulously designed to apply the right amount of force in the right direction to address your specific alignment issues.
Incremental Movement: As you progress through your series of aligners, each new set builds upon the progress of the previous one, gradually guiding your teeth towards their ideal positions.
Precise Planning: Our advanced 3D treatment planning allows us to visualize the entire process and ensure that your specific concerns are being targeted effectively.

When Might Aligners Be Suitable for You?

NewSmile clear aligners are a great option for many individuals with mild to moderate orthodontic issues who are looking for a discreet and convenient treatment. However, it's important to understand that more complex or severe cases might require traditional braces or a combination of treatments.

Determining If NewSmile Is Right for Your Specific Needs:

The best way to determine if NewSmile aligners can address your specific smile issues is to start with our online assessment or by ordering your at-home impression kit. Our dental professionals will carefully evaluate your case to determine if our aligner treatment is the right fit for you.
