The Benefits of Orthodontics

Orthodontic treatment is recommended for patients who have problems related to the alignment of their teeth. Braces are very common and can have positive impact on the look of the smile as well as offering all kinds of other benefits. If you’re thinking of having treatment for problems such as crooked, misaligned or crowded teeth, here are just some of the advantages of orthodontics:

Improved aesthetics

Crowded, crooked and twisted teeth can make you feel self-conscious about smiling in public, meeting new people or taking to the stage for a presentation. Orthodontic treatment helps to straighten out these aesthetic issues and provide you with a beautiful and healthy looking smile. Braces also tend to improve the overall facial aesthetic, as they correct issues with the bite. The bite is the term used to describe how the upper and lower arches of teeth sit together when your jaw is closed and relaxed.

Increased confidence

Most people would admit to being conscious of their appearance and as our smiles are often our most noticeable feature, it’s no surprise that people who are unhappy with the way their teeth look suffer from a lack of confidence. Correcting misalignment and positioning problems helps to create a more attractive smile and increase confidence and self-esteem.

Clear speech

Your teeth are heavily involved in the formation of letters and words and misalignment can contribute to difficulties pronouncing certain sounds. Corrective treatment helps to improve the clarity of speech. Therefore it can also have a positive effect on confidence, especially at times when you are required to speak in public or read aloud.

Improved oral health

Orthodontic problems can make teeth cleaning more difficult and increase the risk of decay and gum disease. Improving the alignment of the teeth helps to make it easier to brush them thoroughly and reduces your odds of developing oral diseases.
