View Full Version : Jaw and orthodontic treatment after crowns

Due to badly decayed teeth, I have had to have crowns put on all my front teeth and will need one implant to replace a tooth that can't be saved.

I also have a severe class II malocclusion (overbite) that will most likely require surgical intervention (orthognathic surgery) and, of course, orthodontics. My question is .. will the crowns and implant severly inhibit the process? From what I understand, brackets can be placed on crowns just like any other tooth. I guess I'm just wanting to be re-assured that I can still havea perfect smile even though I've had crowns put on so many teeth.
