Braces

If your teeth are crooked or crowded, you may need orthodontic treatment to correct it. In some cases, the upper and lower jaws may not meet properly and although the teeth may appear straight, the individual may have an uneven bite.

Protruding, crowded or irregularly spaced teeth and jaw problems may be inherited. Thumb-sucking, losing teeth prematurely and accidents also can lead to these conditions. Since crooked and crowded teeth make cleaning the mouth difficult which can lead to tooth decay, gum disease and possibly tooth loss, correcting the problem can create a much healthier and nice-looking smile.
