Chat about teeth having an overbite is making me depressed
I have an overbite too. What about it is making you depressed?

Going on a bit of a ramble, I used to have braces, but before getting them I had retainers to "fix" my overbite, which I suppose it did. However, it also meant that my molars couldn't connect properly as there was a slight gap, which sometimes made eating an exhausting endeavour as I had to push food towards my front teeth so that I could actually chew (I was told my molars would somehow connect eventually and I would be able to chew properly, but that never happened). Honestly, I genuinely hated having how my jaw was as my tongue would get tired from eating, and now that my overbite returned I'm much happier. Also there was very little change in how I looked, so it didn't really accomplish its one goal.
