If your teeth are too close together, you can feel self-conscious because of visible crowding that makes your smile look jagged, crowded, and generally unattractive. Spacing problems can also create oral health issues by interfering with your bite, as well as by making areas harder to properly clean. When you start to look into treatment for this problem, you can find many benefits to starting care with Invisalign aligners. These appliances are capable of moving teeth discreetly, which means you will not have to worry about aligners that draw unwanted attention. You can also be relieved to have a treatment option from your Virginia Beach, VA dentist that depends on removable appliances.
Teeth That Overlap Can Hurt Your Smile And Oral Health
If your teeth are too close together, the visible issue of overlapping can make you unhappy with your smile. You may have teeth that look out of place because they are crooked, jut out or look pushed in, or simply seem out of position in a way that draws unwanted notice. This is more than just an issue for your smile. You may have a harder time biting and chewing with even pressure, which can lead to trouble with TMJ disorder. Teeth that overlap can also be more difficult to clean, as certain areas can be harder to clean with your toothbrush.
Using Clear Aligners To Discreetly Move Teeth
Instead of depending on metal braces to move your teeth into position, you can rely on a series of clear aligners that are designed to fix your smile. Invisalign appliances are customized for individual patients to help them correct crowding, excess spacing, and other alignment concerns. Each day, you will wear your designated aligner to encourage beneficial movements. You can remove your Invisalign aligner whenever you eat, or when you clean your teeth.
Treatment Can Do More Than Just Change Your Smile
Your dentist may recommend orthodontic work as part of a plan to address TMJ difficulties. TMJ disorder can occur for many reasons, but many who suffer from it have this problem because of an uneven bite. Better teeth spacing can resolve this issue and help improve your quality of life. We can also recommend straightening your teeth as part of a plan to improve your oral health, as it can make daily care easier.
