How to treat buck teeth?

Buck teeth are a common tooth shape in life. This shape of teeth can give people a very ugly feeling, cause great damage to their image, and make people feel very inferior. There are many reasons for buck teeth, which are generally related to unhealthy lifestyle habits. Therefore, it is difficult to diagnose and treat, and can only be achieved through plastic surgery. Let’s take a look at how to treat buck teeth with plastic surgery.

1. Preventive treatment During the embryonic and postnatal development of the teeth and maxillofacial region, various congenital and acquired environmental factors will affect their development and cause tooth and jaw deformities. If various preventive measures are taken to prevent the occurrence of various deformities, it is called preventive treatment. For example, the mother should pay attention to nutrition during pregnancy and avoid excessive radiation exposure and medication. Early treatment of dental caries, early elimination of bad oral habits, and timely extraction of retained deciduous teeth and supernumerary teeth can prevent the occurrence of dental and maxillofacial deformities.

2. Interceptive correction: Early correction in the early stages of dentofacial deformity to prevent the deformity from developing into a serious condition and guide maxillofacial development toward normal is called interceptive correction. If severe crowding of the dentition is discovered at an early stage, sequential tooth extraction treatment is adopted; for early odontogenic anterior crossbite, simple occlusal pads are used to correct it and prevent it from developing into severe skeletal deformities. Especially for those with overbite (underbite), correction should be started as early as possible.

3. General correction General correction is the most common clinical correction. Various types of appliances are selected according to different dental and maxillofacial deformities, such as removable appliances, fixed appliances, functional appliances, etc. 4. Orthognathic surgery for skeletal protrusions, which are mainly caused by bone protrusions. Many require surgery for plastic surgery. How to correct buck teeth depends on the condition of your teeth. Generally, protruding teeth can be treated quickly by surgical orthodontics. The surgical orthodontics technology uses digital simulation design before the operation. Through the computer-aided 3D diagnosis, design and manufacturing system, the doctor will first map out the actual proportions of the mouth and face, and then use maxillofacial X-ray examination to help you make a detailed preoperative 3D simulation design.
