Orthodontic braces offer a number of benefits to the wearer. And while the aesthetics of crooked teeth is generally what sends patients to the dentist in the first place, there are important health reasons that should be considered too.
Straight teeth are easier to keep clean and free of decay than crooked teeth. Crooked teeth are more susceptible to cavities. They can also cause crowding which, if left untreated can result in loosening teeth or tooth loss.
Orthodontic braces also help with bite correction. If you have an under-bite, overbite or cross-bite, orthodontics can correct it.
