Option #1: Braces Braces are a standard option used when a dental patient is experiencing problems with their bite. Braces can gently move the teeth so that they can be put back into their correct and proper positionOption #2: Filling ReplacementMany times when a patient is experiencing a lousy bite, it will begin to affect one or more of the fillings they have in their teeth.
