Why is having a good bite important?

0

A. The bite is important because it is what guides your teeth together and apart, and also what helps determine how your jaw joints fit together. An improper bite can lead to excessive wear and tear of the tops of the teeth, and can lead to TMJ problems, affecting how the jaw fits the skull, and leading to pain or headaches in this area. We assess the bite on each patient, and offer guidelines and solutions to improve the bite, protect the teeth, and keep the joints smooth and pain free.
