How can the bite be corrected?
Careful assessment by Dr Daoudi, Prosthodontist specialist is needed to assess the extent of the problem.
This will involve full examination of the face, joint and teeth. If needed, a mould of the teeth will be recorded for further assessment using dental articulator for bite analysis.
