| 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, worsen gum disease and lead to tooth loss. Other
orthodontic problems can contribute to abnormal wear of 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 an orthodontist can be less costly than
the additional care required to treat dental problems arising as
a result of orthodontic problems. For most people, a beautiful
smile is the most obvious benefit of orthodontics. After your
braces come off, you'll feel more self-confidence and social
acceptance. |
