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-confident.
