When Should You See an Orthodontist?
It’s always a great idea to start a journey towards a brilliant smile. While some people may have apparent asymmetry concerns such as misaligned teeth, others may have undiagnosed or unseen orthodontic problems.
Common reasons for seeking treatment include crooked teeth, overlapping or gapped teeth, improper bites, or misaligned bone structure. It is crucial to address these issues as soon as possible. Not only are these problems unsightly, but If left untreated, these conditions can lead to more severe issues like gum disease and rapid tooth decay.
Some people do not know they need treatment because of the common misconception that only the alignment of your visible teeth is an indicator of overall orthodontic health. These people may have severe underlying issues that they can’t see, but they will experience higher cavity risk and related body problems.
