“Can your overbite come back after braces?”
I am a 17 year old female. I wonder if your overbite can come back after braces?

Yes, I use a special appliance that patients use to sleep to hold the bite.
The answer is yes, if you do not wear your retainer for the rest of your life. Your teeth are very mobile after orthodontic treatment. They will tighten up eventually, however, they will move again over time if they are not kept in check with the retainers.
Yes. It is very important to wear your retainers as your orthodontist prescribes. It is also important to go to your follow up appointments for a couple years after your orthodontic treatment is finished. Retention is the MOST important part of your orthodontic treatment.

Yes, that’s why you must wear a retainer in most cases.
Anything is possible, especially if you don't wear your retainers...
