In orthodontics, an open bite is a type of malocclusion, or misalignment of the teeth, where the upper and lower teeth do not touch when the mouth is closed. This gap between the biting surfaces of the front and/or side teeth can affect both the functionality and aesthetics of a person's smile.

When a tooth is cracked, the structural integrity of the tooth may be compromised, and it may become weak or susceptible to further damage.

Read MoreEnamel microabrasion in dentistry is a minimally invasive cosmetic dental treatment that involves removing a thin layer of enamel from the teeth using an acidic abrasive material. The procedure is used to remove superficial stains and discolourations from the teeth that are resistant to traditional whitening treatments, and to improve the appearance of teeth with superficial enamel irregularities and discolouration defects. Microabrasion may be helpful for brown, yellow or white stains or spots associated with conditions such as enamel fluorosis, hypomineralisation, decalcified areas around orthodontic brackets and other marks that do not respond to bleaching alone. Microabrasion may be used before and/or after dental bleaching to achieve uniform tooth colour for these types of difficult to treat teeth.
