@nexus.ortho: Why don’t the front teeth touch? 👀 An anterior open bite can develop from habits like prolonged thumb sucking or tongue thrusting. When these habits continue, they can affect how the front teeth come together. This makes it especially hard to eat foods and can even affect speech. That’s where a habit appliance may help by interrupting the habit and reducing that repeated pressure. In orthodontics, a habit appliance is a device that helps discourage unhealthy thumb sucking or tongue thrusting. It may have a small crib, rake, or barrier that makes it harder to place the thumb or tongue in the same position.

Why did they place her braces without an appliance to stop the thumb sucking?

I have an overbite and my teeth flare forward, I already had braces to straighten but that’s what caused the flaring, should i do invisalign?
