Misaligned or overcrowded teeth

Misaligned or overcrowded teeth can be corrected through orthodontic treatment. Orthodontic treatment involves braces, clear aligners, or other orthodontic appliances to straighten and align the teeth. The type of orthodontic treatment recommended will depend on the individual’s specific needs and the severity of their misalignment or overcrowding.

Braces consist of metal brackets and wires attached to the teeth and are typically adjusted every 4-8 weeks to move the teeth into the desired position gradually. Clear aligners are a newer type of orthodontic treatment that consists of clear plastic trays that fit over the teeth and are changed out every 2-3 weeks as the teeth move.

Crowded or misaligned teeth can be harder to clean, making them more susceptible to tooth decay. Poorly aligned teeth can trap food and plaque, increasing the risk of gum disease. Teeth that are not properly aligned can put unnecessary stress on certain teeth, leading to wear and tear. Misaligned teeth can cause bite problems, such as overbite, under bite, or cross bite, which can cause discomfort, jaw pain, and headaches. Crowded or misaligned teeth can affect speech, making it difficult to articulate words clearly. People with misaligned or overcrowded teeth may feel self- conscious about their appearance, leading to decreased self-esteem and confidence.

It’s important to address misaligned or overcrowded teeth as soon as possible to avoid these potential problems and maintain good oral health. This can typically be done with orthodontic treatment, such as braces or clear aligners.

Traditional metal braces use brackets and wires to apply pressure to teeth and gradually align them into their proper position. Clear aligners, such as Invisalign, are transparent, removable trays that fit snugly over the teeth and gradually move them into the correct position. Lingual braces are similar to traditional braces, but they are placed on the back side of the teeth, making them virtually invisible. After orthodontic treatment, retainers may help maintain the proper alignment of teeth and prevent them from shifting back to their original position.
