What to do if your teeth don't grow well

Benefits of orthodontics

1. Teeth cleaning

Orthodontics can help keep teeth clean and help maintain periodontal health. Because, regularly arranged teeth have the function of self-cleaning, but irregularly arranged teeth will bring certain difficulties to brushing and cleaning, and are prone to tartar deposition, redness and swelling of the gums (bleeding when brushing, bad breath, etc.), and periodontal disease (loose teeth, gum recession, etc.) may occur over time, which is even more difficult to treat! Orthodontics can make the teeth more neatly aligned, making them easier to clean and preventing caries and periodontal disease.

2. Clear occlusal trauma

Unbalanced bite force can cause tooth damage, making the teeth more likely to loosen and fall out prematurely. Orthodontic treatment can restore the tooth arrangement and bite relationship to normal, thus providing good protection for the teeth.

3. Eliminate bite interference

Certain disordered occlusion relationships can cause damage to the temporomandibular joint. Orthodontic treatment can normalize the occlusion relationship and avoid damage to the temporomandibular joint. It can also be used to treat temporomandibular joint disease, etc.

4. Repair dentures

People who are missing teeth but do not want to have dentures or are not suitable for dentures can also use orthodontics to close the gaps between missing teeth and achieve an aesthetically pleasing effect. For people whose teeth are too sparse or have gaps between them, the gaps between them can be concentrated through dental correction, and dentures can be placed in the areas where the gaps are formed, which can also achieve the purpose of aesthetics. It can also create favorable conditions for tooth replacement. Too many missing teeth or long periods of missing teeth, uneven tooth spacing or tilted teeth can affect the design and precision of denture making.

5. Improve facial bone abnormalities

Orthodontics can improve abnormal facial bone development through various corrective devices.

6. Dental health

Orthodontics can achieve better oral function, maintain dental health longer, and improve appearance. Severe protruding teeth or large gaps between teeth affect your appearance or your destiny.

7. Self-confidence

This is also a very important point. Whenever you see someone covering their mouth with their hands when smiling in real life or on TV, don’t think they are shy or something. Nine times out of ten, they have dental problems! Whether at work or when interacting with friends, being able to smile brilliantly without any scruples can greatly add to your personal charm. At the same time, I think having neat and beautiful teeth is also a reflection of one's quality of life. Therefore, people who allow their teeth to be unsightly are definitely not as positive in life and mentally healthier as those who wear dental braces! The face shape and teeth are beautiful, which helps people to have confidence in themselves and achieve normal personality development. Function, health and appearance are all indispensable.

8. Chewing function

Orthodontic treatment can help with digestion and nutrient absorption. Abnormal bite in adults or middle-aged and elderly people can affect chewing.

9. Improve other oral functions

Such as pronunciation, lip closure, avoiding dryness of oral mucosa and increasing oral resistance to infection.

10. Prevent tooth decay

The gaps between teeth are difficult to completely remove plaque due to misaligned teeth, which can lead to caries in the long run. Orthodontic treatment is beneficial to the prevention of caries.
