The term çapraz kapanış bursa refers to crossbite—when upper and lower teeth don’t meet in the correct relationship. Crossbite can cause uneven wear, gum recession in certain areas, and functional shifts in jaw movement. Early evaluation is important, especially in children.
At MilimDental, Dr. Begüm Ulaşan (orthodontist / orthodontic specialist) identifies whether the crossbite is dental (tooth position) or skeletal (jaw width). Treatment may involve expansion, braces, or aligners depending on age and severity. Correcting crossbite is often less about “straightening” and more about restoring a balanced bite relationship.
Crossbite treatment should include clear goals and retention strategy. Patients should know what changes to expect and how long stabilization will take. If you notice an off-center bite, one side chewing preference, or jaw shift during closing, a crossbite assessment can prevent long-term complications.
