Is it possible to fix an overbite without braces? i had braces and nothing was done to fix my overbite. http://i57.tinypic.com/xp0ghi.jpg

Difficult to tell...: ...From your .Jpg, but neither horizontal or vertical over bites appear excessive. Upper front teeth are supposed to slightly (2mm) overlap lower teeth. Please see a qualified orthodontic specialist for evaluation.
