Benefits of braces
Your dentist may have discussed with you the benefits of having healthy teeth and proper jaw alignment. Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain. This can result in tooth decay, increased gum disease and may lead to tooth loss.
Other orthodontic problems can also result in abnormal wear of the tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints. These can lead to chronic headaches and face or neck pain.
Treatment by us can be less costly than the additional care required to fix poorly positioned teeth. For most people, a beautiful smile is the most obvious benefit of orthodontics. |
