Why Bother With Alignment?
This is one of the most common questions that our patients ask. If teeth are just mildly crooked, or if the overbite or underbite is mild, why bother to fix it? After all, maybe the overbite lends a little bit of cuteness to the smile, or maybe the crooked teeth don’t seem to cause any trouble? Well, the answer is that not addressing alignment problems can actually cause other problems.
Alignment problems tend to worsen as a person gets older. It never, ever goes away on its own, but it frequently ends up causing problems as time goes on. For one thing, the jaw bone’s health depends upon a certain amount of pressure being applied in order to retain its integrity. Without ample—and correct—pressure being applied to the teeth from the corresponding teeth in the opposite arch, the jaw bone could begin to weaken. Over time, this can result in tooth loss.
All of this negative scenario can be avoided with orthodontic treatment in Farmersville, TX. At Longhorn Dental of Farmersville, we offer aligners that are easily one of the most simple solutions for alignment problems available today.
