Crossbite

ORTHODONTIC CONCERN

Crossbite

What is Crossbite?

A crossbite occurs when one or more upper teeth bite inside the lower teeth rather than outside them. It can affect the front or back teeth and may be related to tooth position or jaw width. Assessment helps determine whether tooth movement, expansion, or another approach is appropriate.
