Deciding to straighten your teeth can seem complicated. Crowding, gaps, and misaligned bites respond differently to individual orthodontic treatments. At Oral Dental, finding the quickest and most efficient way to treat your crooked teeth is our top priority. Crooked teeth may mean different things to different people. Most people refer to teeth that aren’t straight or aligned as “crooked.” We see patients with a variety of concerns about their smiles. These concerns range from spacing to bite issues. Below we look at the most common orthodontic problems we treat. Crowding manifests as overlapping teeth that look like they don’t have enough room to fit in the mouth. Often crowded teeth become increasingly overlapped with time, which can lead to an even more crooked smile. Crowding in the mouth makes it more difficult to clean the teeth adequately, and there is an increased risk for plaque, decay, and gum disease. A crossbite is a jaw misalignment that can involve one tooth or a group of teeth that rest on the inside of the lower teeth. Crossbites may occur in the front or on the sides of the mouth and may contribute to excessive wear on teeth, gum disease, and bone loss.
