Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley CA
Overlapping teeth are a common dental concern that affects many people, often leading to both aesthetic and health issues. In Scotts Valley and beyond, patients frequently seek solutions to correct this misalignment for a healthier, more confident smile. At Ebrahimian Integrative Dentistry, we understand that overlapping teeth are not just a cosmetic issue but can also impact your oral health, including the ease of cleaning your teeth, your bite, and even your speech.
Understanding Overlapping Teeth
Overlapping teeth occur when the teeth do not have enough space to properly align in the mouth. This condition can arise from several factors, including genetics, premature loss of baby teeth, or improper tooth eruption. When teeth overlap, they can create spaces that are difficult to clean, leading to a higher risk of cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues. Additionally, misaligned teeth can cause discomfort while chewing and speaking, impacting your overall quality of life.

Treatment Options for Overlapping Teeth
- Clear Aligners Clear aligners are an excellent option for many patients with overlapping teeth. These custom-made, removable aligners are discreet and comfortable, allowing you to straighten your teeth without the need for traditional braces. Using state-of-the-art 3D imaging technology, Ebrahimian Integrative Dentistry creates aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their optimal positions, giving you a beautiful smile.
- Traditional Braces For more complex cases of overlapping teeth, traditional braces may be necessary. Braces use metal brackets and wires to apply gentle pressure to the teeth, moving them over time into the desired alignment. At Ebrahimian Integrative Dentistry, we offer a variety of braces, including ceramic brackets that blend more naturally with your teeth, providing a less noticeable option for those who prefer a subtler treatment.
- Dental Veneers In situations where the overlap is minimal or the primary concern is cosmetic, dental veneers can be a quick and effective solution. These thin, custom-made shells are applied to the front of your teeth, instantly improving their appearance. Our team specializes in cosmetic dentistry and will ensure that your veneers enhance not only your smile but also your overall facial aesthetics.
