Your smile is one of the most important reflections of your individual personality. Crooked teeth or misaligned jaws can also lead to suppressing the natural urge to smile. As such, better looking teeth can restore self-confidence and improve the overall quality of life and your social interactions.
Apart from appearance, crooked teeth are also more difficult to clean. This causes a higher chance of cavities and gum problems. In some cases, misaligned teeth can interfere with biting and may lead to gum problems or shifting of the jaw.
There are many reasons people seek out teeth straightening treatments. Some people are naturally born with small jaws or crooked or protruding teeth or they may simply wish to have some adjustment of their teeth alignment. Here are a few of the common reasons you might seek the care for:
If you have had teeth extracted and as a result now have extra space in your mouth, you may find that there are large gaps starting to show. Spacing issues can lead to gum problems as teeth have less protection.
An overbite is another common reason why people look for orthodontics solutions. This occurs when the top or upper teeth bite over the lower teeth. Ongoing problems can present later in life and cause uneven wear on the bottom teeth. The opposite situation, an underbite, can be just as problematic and painful unless resolved.
If you were born with a relatively small jaw, there may be a problem with overcrowding when there is simply a lack of room for all of your teeth to fit as required. Left unaddressed, you can have severely crooked teeth and this can lead to further complications with dental hygiene. If this is the case for you, talk to our specialist today, so we can begin planning your treatment.
Our orthodontist does not only treat teeth irregularities (alignment, sizing and shape) and disproportionate jaw relationships, but also manage skeletal and dental development in growing children.
