Patients asking how is bite evaluated during consultation are asking the right question—because bite (occlusion) is what determines long-term comfort and stability. Bite evaluation means analyzing how upper and lower teeth contact in different positions: when you close gently, when you bite firmly, and when you move side-to-side. Misalignment without bite planning can lead to uneven wear, gum stress, and relapse.
At MilimDental, Dr. Begüm Ulaşan (orthodontist / orthodontic specialist) evaluates bite by checking overbite/overjet, midline alignment, crossbite presence, functional shifts, and arch coordination. For many cases, digital records and photographs support analysis, and imaging may be recommended when root position, jaw relationships, or impacted teeth need clarification. Bite evaluation also includes practical symptoms: jaw fatigue, clenching habits, tooth wear, and sensitivity patterns.
A quality consultation connects bite findings to treatment choices. If the bite requires significant correction, braces may be more predictable; if the bite changes are mild to moderate and the case is suitable, aligners can work well with attachments and elastics. The goal is not just straight teeth—it is a stable bite that feels natural and stays stable after treatment.
