Three Reasons To Correct A Misaligned Smile

Are you an adult with uneven or overcrowded teeth? You may have noticed that this can affect your appearance and your self-confidence. An uneven smile can cause you to shy away from meeting new people or taking pictures. It can also cause problems for your oral health if the problem is not corrected. In today’s blog, your Prairie Village, KS, dentist is here to explain the benefits of correcting an uneven grin.

Improve Your Appearance And Boost Your Confidence

One of the most obvious reasons patients may want to improve their alignment is to have a more symmetrical and esthetically appealing smile. However, many patients put this treatment off because they worry about wearing braces that can disrupt their appearance or make them appear younger. With our method of clear aligners, you can feel confident in knowing that no one will notice your trays as you correct your teeth. The material is virtually invisible to others and much more discreet than traditional braces. You can wear them in pictures, in the office, or at special events without worrying about them getting in the way of your appearance.

Decrease Your Chances Of Harming A Tooth

Many people may not realize that having teeth that overlap or are overcrowded can increase the chances of one becoming damaged. Uneven teeth may be caused by a misaligned bite or structures that grew too close together. This problem can put excessive stress on your jaw and risk damaging your pearly whites. Your dentist can examine your oral cavity to assess the severity of your misalignment and determine if this orthodontic method is right for you. With this option, we focus on correcting the most visible teeth in your smile. This means that if you have more serious concerns with overlapping or crowding, alternative methods may be suggested instead.

Minimize The Risk Of Tooth Decay And Other Concerns

It can also be difficult to thoroughly clean between your pearly whites if they overlap with each other. This can increase your risk of developing cavities, gingivitis, and other oral health concerns. By correcting this issue, you can protect your oral health from many common dental problems. You may also have improved speech clarity and other helpful improvements to your smile. One advantage of using our clear aligners is that you can see your results faster, which means your oral health may be improved in less time. Depending on your specific needs, this treatment can be completed in a few months to a year.
