Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 I'd like to know who out there has an overbite and how big it is. I have a 16mm overbite and am wondering if there are other people who have an overbite as large as mine (or am I the only one?). I'd appreciate your response. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Mine is only ~10mm (but post - orthodontics!, getting ready for the surgery). Hey, lets have an overbite contest! Whoever wins, gets - what? First prize - any ideas? You are the leader now. Val > I'd like to know who out there has an overbite and how big it is.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 I say whoever wins get free braces and the surgery! Woo hoo! Wishful thinking on my part! I think this would be the one thing that I wouldn't want to be the leader. I'd hate to think that I'm the only one who has this bad of an overbite. But hopefully one day that won't be the case. > > I'd like to know who out there has an overbite and how big it is. > I > > have a 16mm overbite and am wondering if there are other people who > > have an overbite as large as mine (or am I the only one?).

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Sorry good news and bad news. The bad news is you don't " win " this contest and the good news is that there are people with worse overbites. My surgeon never told me exactly how bad mine was but my mandible was advanced 17 mm and the upper jaw was moved back and up 5 mm. I'm guessing the overbite was about 20 mm. Around the same time I had my lower jaw surgery, my surgeon corrected someone whose overbite was even worse. > > > I'd like to know who out there has an overbite and how big it > is. > > I > > > have a 16mm overbite and am wondering if there are other people > who > > > have an overbite as large as mine (or am I the only one?).
