Bite Problem

[thatman]

When I bite my teeth don't touch usually but sometimes it seems I push my lower jaw forward meaning there is contact? Sometimes, I tend to make contact with them so I assume I push my lower jaw forward, this happens about 5-20 times a day for the last 4 months. I know that my bite is slightly off as most of my contact is on my premolars on the right hand side but my molars do touch. I am wondering how this touching can go away and why it is occurring? Furthermore, in probably a month I will be getting Invisalign so should this problem then go away?

Good day,

If there is a problem with your occlusion, your orthodontist would have picked it up during his consult and planned for this in his treatment plan. The problem should go away after your orthodontic treatment is complete.
