Braces Introduction
When you smile, do you keep your lips closed? When you laugh, do you cover your mouth with your hand? Even if you have crooked teeth, you should see one of our orthodontists if you are experiencing pain or embarrassment because of them.
With braces, you can straighten your teeth, correct bite problems, and improve the appearance of your smile. It is also important to note that dental braces will give you results that will last a lifetime.
What Are Braces?
The use of braces can help correct problems with your teeth, such as crowding, crooked teeth, or teeth that are out of alignment. The majority of people get braces when they’re teenagers, but they can also get them as adults.
Braces slowly straighten and align your teeth so that you have a normal bite as you wear them. Braces are sometimes used to adjust people’s smiles.
It is possible to straighten teeth if you have crooked teeth and/or a misaligned bite (underbite or overbite), using braces and retainers. These tools help keep your teeth in place and cover the outside of your teeth with custom-made, removable, or fixed tools.
Are You A Candidate For Braces?
You are probably a good candidate for braces if you have most of your permanent teeth and malocclusion. You may be a good candidate for orthodontic treatment with braces if you have the following types of bite problems:

Crossbite:
An improper alignment of the top and bottom teeth results in this malocclusion.

Overjet:
In this case, the top front teeth protrude outward.

Overbite:
Too many of the bottom teeth are covered by the top front teeth.

Underbite:
The bottom teeth rest in front of the top teeth when the teeth are closed.

Open Bite:
The top and bottom front teeth don’t meet properly in this condition.

BENEFITS OF BRACES

Improve self-confidence

Aesthetic reasons are often the reason for getting braces. Shiny new smiles can give you a certain level of confidence and self-esteem boost. Since your smile is one of the first things others notice about you, why wouldn’t you want it to be perfect?

The ability to function better

A straight set of teeth also ensures proper alignment of the jaws and proper fit of the teeth. Correctly fitting teeth make biting, chewing, and even speaking easier. In addition to these functions, aligned jaws can also help alleviate breathing problems, such as snoring.

It is easier to clean

Cleaning teeth that are crowded can be challenging. The purpose of braces is to alleviate crowding so that all surfaces of the teeth can be cleaned thoroughly and less food can get trapped between them.

Dental work is reduced

While braces are definitely an investment, they can save money in the long run by reducing the amount of dental work needed. The ease of cleaning teeth is one of the benefits of braces. Dental work such as fillings, root canals, and crowns will be less likely to occur if you clean your teeth properly.

Wear and injury risks are reduced

If your teeth protrude or stick out too much, you’re more likely to sustain an injury, which may result in costly repairs or even tooth loss. By bringing these teeth into a more stable position, braces can reduce this risk. You can also damage your teeth if your teeth don’t fit well together. By ensuring your bite is in a good position, braces help relieve clenching and grinding habits.
