More Than a Cosmetic Concern
When asked about their smile, many patients are quick to jump to the cosmetic concerns that are readily noticeable. These can include stains, chips and cracks, gaps that have developed naturally between teeth, and even crooked or angled structures. On its face, these may seem like nothing more than cosmetic concerns that really do not have a major impact on your health. On the contrary, some chips and cracks may be deeper and more damaging than you thought, and crooked teeth actually lead to an entire host of other issues if it is not addressed.
You see, you should feel comfortable and confident in your smile, but sometimes situations can complicate this practice. Further, your oral health is a top priority to be considered, and even though some situations are labeled more traditionally as cosmetic, that does not mean they do not impact your health or that they should not be tended to.

Other Things to Know
In addition to the noticeable effect crooked structures have on your smile’s alignment, angled teeth can actually cause health complications as well. For instance, a crooked tooth can cause crowding of nearby or surrounding teeth. It can also lead to the formation of crevices that are difficult to keep clean, and subsequently result in an increased chance of developing major gum infections or complications down the line. Finally, the sub-optimal angle at which the structures develop could result in less secure support and an increased risk of structures falling out.
Knowing Your Options
When you come in for your visit, our team will take care to provide information about your condition, as well as what treatment might look like in your particular case. For instance, we may recommend traditional braces or brackets to straighten your grin, or perhaps even the use of clear aligners that discreetly guide your structures into place.
