Invisalign

What happens when teeth are out of place? (Malocclusion)

Teeth are all bunched up together (crowding)

• more plaque and calculus buildup = longer cleaning
• Houses dangerous bacteria
• More chances of periodontal disease, loss of teeth, bone loss.

Teeth have spaces in between(whistle when I talk)

• More food accumulating in between teeth
• More chances of red gums and sore gums
• More chances of periodontal disease

---

Teeth have deep bite (can’t bite into an apple)

• Lower teeth erupt too much which causes one to bite their palate when chewing, causing damage to the palate
• Causes too much wear and worn look of the lower front teeth

Teeth are in crossbite (many times I bite my cheek)

• Tooth wears quickly and teeth can chip easily
• Areas of teeth towards bottom that chip off (abfraction lesions)

Teeth have too much overbite (can’t tear my sandwich)

• Teeth fracture and chip easily
• Causes trauma to front teeth

Teeth are edge to edge (bite does not feel right)

• Teeth chip and break easily
• Joint pain
• Front teeth short and worn down

Teeth are open when bite (my lips are not seated right in my face)

• Small areas at neck of teeth (abfraction lesions)
• Gum receding, loose teeth or some loss
• Too much wear on back teeth

Teeth malaligned or malocclusion if left untreated can lead to periodated disease and is a risk factor to bone loss. Periodental disease may increase your chances of getting atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease (hardening of the arteries)
