The bite of the teeth is a feature of the human jaw structure when the rows of teeth interact when the jaws are closed. He is a person's right and wrong, and only by taking a photo, you can determine their appearance.
If the teeth on the jaws are tightly pressed to each other, then this is the correct location. The ideal correct bite happens when the upper teeth cover the lower teeth by one third, and the molars are in close contact with each other - the upper teeth with the lower teeth.
People with the correct bite have a harmonious oval of the face, they have full symmetry of the lower part, and the central vertical line of the face is in a straight line with the places where the central incisors touch.
The shape of the upper dental arch resembles a semi-oval, and the bottom - a parabola. For each person, the shape of the dental arches is strictly individual. The closure of the rows is the line called: the occlusal curve.
Each person in his own way is individual. So there are no similar jaws, and therefore the bites of all people are different. Even correct human bite has its own variety, which has the character of a fully closed dentition. And it differs only in appearance, when closing the front teeth.

Types of bites in humans
- Orthognathic - when a person closes his mouth, the upper jaw covers the lower one by one third. In dentists, such a bite is considered a reference.
- Progenic - when closing the mouth, the lower jaw is slightly pushed forward.
- Straight - when jaws are interconnected by cutting edges.
- Biprognathic - when the incisor closes, it tilts towards the mouth.
Correct permanent bite
It is characterized by the following factors:
- correct and even arrangement of teeth;
- number of teeth - 28 or 32, the correct form, without chips and on the enamel there are no stains and cracks;
- one third of the upper jaw closes the lower jaw;
- jaws (upper and lower) of the same size and shape represent an oval arc;
- beautiful and symmetrical smile;
- there are no gaps between the teeth, which are close on one jaw;
- molars of both jaws tightly closed;
- the person pronounces all sounds correctly and he breathes well with his nose;
- when a person can open his mouth without any problems and silently no clicks, crunch when opening or chewing food;
- chewing does not cause difficulties, there is no night rattle jaws. There is no osteochondrosis of the cervical and thoracic spine.
Malocclusion
It is formed at birth or a jaw defect that was acquired during an injury. If there are different deviations from the norm when the jaws are closed, this indicates an incorrect state of the jaws.
He might be:
- open - when most of the teeth do not fit in the mouth;
- deep - This is when the upper incisors overlap the front surface of the lower more than 50%;
- distal - well developed upper jaw or insufficiently - lower;
- cross - one side of the jaw is underdeveloped;
- mesial - when the lower jaw is strongly advanced in relation to the upper jaw;
- dystopia - when some teeth are incorrectly located.
Very often wrong bite leads to various diseases any organ in the human body, not just the mouth. At present, many people have such a diagnosis.
Incorrect bite changes the shape of the face and makes the smile ugly.Usually, adolescents suffer from this and they begin to complex on this basis. This small aesthetic problem is becoming a serious cause of psychological trauma in children in transition.
Another negative consequence of improper bite is when chewing load is unevenly distributed on the jaw. Overloaded teeth are more susceptible and vulnerable than those with the least strain. A person with the wrong bite at the age of 35–40 begins to notice deterioration of the teeth, as they are more prone to viruses. The teeth begin to loose, the roots become bare, periodontal disease develops and this affects the loss of teeth.
With such a bite, an unpleasant sensation arises while eating, and at night a person begins to gnash his teeth and click his jaw. With improper chewing food gastrointestinal risk, gastritis and other diseases may develop.
Curved teeth with improper bite is very difficult to clean and between them often accumulated food debris. And therefore, a person with crooked teeth can often notice a yellow patina on them and he has a greater tendency to caries.
The most annoying thing is that crooked teeth are difficult to make and restore. Even if a person with such a problem turns to a dentist for treatment, it will take him a lot of time.
In adulthood, if you remove a crooked tooth and put a bridge on itthen the neighboring one will not give such an opportunity and it will also have to be deleted.
How to fix the wrong bite?
It is recommended to correct the consequences of malocclusion from early childhood. A small child is corrected with caps, plates and trainers. This type of treatment further helps to avoid more radical treatment.
If it is corrected at an older age, the dentist will suggest installing a bracket system. Call this treatment painless can not, but this method is the most effective for the treatment of malocclusion. There is no way to refuse this method. After treatment, it is necessary to re-take a photo to make sure the bite is working.
