I'm currently 15.5 with a bone age of 14-14.3 and I just started doing braces, after a year or so I'll do elastics, will they correct my overbite?

i started braces at 14 and got them off at 16 wear your bands as much as you can. I had a deep bite and now I just have a slight overbite. I regret not wearing them more often. Just do it, trust me. Mark as solution

just fix it asap so your skull doesnt develop like a peanut because of your overbite
Yea I just hope the braces don't take long so the elastic bands don't come 2 late, I guess being a late bloomer did helped for once

Yes,

They did this exact thing with me, for both an overbite and an underbite.

The bands will use your upper K-9 teeth to pull the bottom molars forward, causing the lower teeth to be pushed forward more, while the upper teeth will be set back more. The elastics pull your teeth which directly affect your bite (they are the bite).

Hope this helps.

Can you attach a before and after elastic bands side profile? That is if you have the pics
 
is the overbite in the room with us
do you know what the fuck an overbite is 😂 it’s a bite correlation dumbass, just because someone doesn’t “look” recessed visually does not point to them not having an overbite, you can be overly projected with a severe overbite and under projected with an underbite

I've been on 20 different websites and over dozens of videos trying to find examples of side profiles after elastic bands, finally I find one, this is probably how I'll look to since I have a good chin similar to yours, may I ask when did you start with braces, when did you start your elastic bands? (Age range)

greys like you should get their own category for their learning phase so they dont post stupid takes like this
 
Alr so my upper teeth covering 80% of my lower teeth isn't an overbite🥶🤤🤔
thats not 80% and you're confusing your horrible and asymmetrical vertical maxillary positioning to being a definite overbite get bimax and stop coping
