Benefits of Orthodontic Care
Orthodontic care is not just cosmetic in nature.
Straight , properly aligned teeth are easier to brush and floss , which helps to prevent tooth decay and gingivitis such as inflammation that damages gums
People with bad bites have less chewing efficiency . correcting the bite with orthodontic care can make it easier to chew and digest foods Orthodontic treatment can also correct speech if upper and lower front teeth dona€?t align right causing speech difficulties
Correct age for Orthodonic Care
Starting orthodontic treatment early in life say by the age of 7 may have many advantages. For example , while children are still growing expansion devices can be used to widen the palate . this can help teeth come in straightener by providing more space. It also may help correct the way the top teeth and bottom teeth meet or come together.
Many people undergo orthodontic treatment during preteen and teenage years. At this time , most of the permanent teeth have come in and treatment can be most effective
However , adult treatment say in 30 s /40s/50s can be more complicated . it may require more than one dental professional to fully correct a problem . for example, adult patients may be more susceptible to gum problems and will need to address these. Sometimes they also have jaw alignment problems that require corrective surgery . one of the biggest limitations in adult treatment is that adult are no longer growing.
