Snoring? "Token" face profile? Incorrect posture? Heart disease
Jaw joint complaints?
We need to be aware that irregular dentition causes many other health problems besides an irregular smile.
Oral cavity
First, it is worth mentioning that the tooth distortion increases the risk of gum disease and tooth decay. It also has a number of negative consequences.
Aesthetics
The position of the upper front teeth determines the position of the upper lip, so for example, upper incisors that are tilted inwards will negatively affect the lip profile. In addition, the position of the chin and mandible is a key determinant of the facial profile. In some bite deviations, a person may appear to have "no chin" or to have a very "stubby" mandible at the back.
Functional problems
Dentition and bite abnormalities cause many functional problems such as snoring, sleep apnoea, swallowing problems, speech problems etc... It may be shocking that our bite has a clear impact on our posture itself.
General health
Crowded teeth have been linked to everything from jaw joint problems to heart disease. Did you ever think that the condition of your teeth could be linked to your life expectancy?
Psychological aspects
With malocclusion and other bite discrepancies, it's not just about how you look, how you look, but also how you feel. Beautiful, healthy and regular teeth boost your self-confidence and help you live a more liberated life.
