My sister plays the trumpet and she had an over bite when she started playing. All you have to do is play it like you normally would and get used to it. Practice a lot to get good tone even with the overbite. Another tip would be maybe trying a bigger mouth piece. One more thing might be you may want to try switching to french horn. My band teacher plays the french horn but used to play the trumpet. She has an overbite and she said that horn is better to play with an overbite than the trumpet.
Hope that helps and good luck!Any advice on how to play the trumpet when you have an overbite
well, you could get braces.
Also, you might want to work on your embochure, try using more upper lip, or more lower lip. It takes about 6 months to get used to a new embochure, so check with who ever is teaching you wheather or not you should change it or not.
If your tone is bad, you might want to try changing the amount of slack in your jaw.
