Very much so: Call a qualified orthodontic specialist for an initial examination (usually free or low cost) to determine the best way to resolve your malocclusion. You'll be glad you did.

Of course: Malocclusion and problems with overbite, can be treated with braces. Only dentist or orthodontist can determine if you are a good candidate.
