Yes. They push back your overbite and when your overbite is small enough your orthodontist will fit you with train tracks.

I have an orthodontist appointment tomorrow and am due to get train tracks this may but will almost definitely be fitted with them earlier. They really improve your bite and they make a big difference to your teeth even before you get train tracks. Am I rambling? I am.
