Orthodontic treatment can help correct and manage a host of dental and general health problems, including:
- Jaw irregularities (in the upper and lower Jaws)
- The bite and its function
- Your facial profile
- The fullness of your lips
- The shape & size of your smile (crowding, spacing, protruding or impacted teeth)
- Breathing Problems
- Speech difficulties
- Bad Habits such as finger and thumb sucking
Straight teeth enable you to effectively bite, chew and speak correctly. Untreated Orthodontic problems can worsen over time. They may lead to tooth decay, gum disease, destruction of the bone that holds teeth in place, and chewing and digestive difficulties. Orthodontic problems can cause; abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing function, excessive stress on gum tissue, the jaw joints and the bone that supports the teeth - sometimes leading to chronic headaches or pain in the face or neck.
Treating Orthodontic problems early may be less costly than the restorative dental care required to treat more serious problems that can develop in later years.
