Oral science: "Orthodontics" and these benefits, do you know?

Many people know that deformed teeth have a great impact on our face shape and mouth shape, so most people choose orthodontics to improve the shape of teeth and facial appearance, but did you know that the harm of misaligned teeth is not only It affects the value of the face, so the effect of orthodontics is not only to become beautiful~

1. In addition to affecting the appearance of the teeth, what are the other harms?

Hazards to oral health:

The teeth are crowded and misplaced, and it is difficult to clean when brushing the teeth, so that food residues stay in the gaps between the teeth and the edges of the gums for a long time, and oral diseases such as tooth decay, gingivitis, and bleeding gums are prone to occur.

Affects general health:

Due to the malocclusion, the chewing function is reduced, and the food is not chewed sufficiently. Over time, it will cause indigestion or gastrointestinal diseases, which will affect the absorption of nutrients and damage the health of the body.

2. What are the benefits of orthodontics?

1. Teeth are easier to clean and the mouth is healthier

When the teeth are deformed, the condition of the mouth and dentition will become very complicated, even if you brush your teeth hard, it will be difficult to clean the teeth thoroughly. It will bring very big hidden dangers to the health of teeth, and it is easy to cause tooth decay and periodontal disease. After orthodontic treatment, the cleaning of the teeth will become normal, which is more conducive to protecting the teeth.

2. Prevent occlusal trauma

Tooth malformation can affect the uniform distribution of occlusal force, while uneven distribution of occlusal force can cause occlusal trauma, making teeth trauma. This can eventually lead to premature loosening and loss of teeth. After orthodontics, the alignment of the teeth will be correct, and the occlusion of the teeth will be normal, which can prevent occlusal trauma.

3. Improve chewing function

When the teeth are deformed, it will seriously affect the chewing function of the teeth, make it difficult to grind food, increase the burden on the stomach, and even cause a series of effects on the digestive system, affecting the absorption of nutrients. After orthodontics, the chewing efficiency is improved, and the food is easier to grind.

4. Improve oral function

Because some dental deformities (open jaw, buck teeth, large incisor gaps) not only affect the chewing function, but also affect the pronunciation function of the oral cavity, resulting in inaccurate or unclear pronunciation. After straightening the teeth, this problem can be obviously solved well.

The role of orthodontics is not only to improve the appearance

Maintain oral health and improve oral function

Therefore, there are situations such as sparse teeth, crooked teeth, overburden, crowded teeth, open jaw, etc.
