Benefits of Straight Teeth: Beyond Aesthetics

Are you prepared to confidently flash the winning smile? It's common for many people to mistake orthodontics for cosmetic dentistry, although the field involves far more aspects than first appearances. In addition to improving your appearance, orthodontic treatment can have a major positive impact on your dental health. In this blog post, we’re delving into the field of orthodontics and examining the reasons why having straight teeth is beneficial for more than just appearance.

Benefits of Straight Teeth: Beyond a Beautiful Smile

A gorgeous smile is frequently linked to straight teeth, but there are many more advantages than just appearances. At ALIGNERCO, we believe that having straight teeth promotes overall oral health and well-being in addition to giving a person an appealing appearance. Let us examine the many benefits of having teeth that are beyond a flawless smile.

• Cleaning and Flossing Straight Teeth is Easier

  Were you aware that food particles and drink residues can more easily get stuck in teeth that are uneven or crooked? Straighter teeth are easier to brush and floss, which reduces plaque buildup and the risk of gum disease and tooth decay.

• Enhanced Chewing

  It may be challenging to fully chew your food if you have bite issues, such as open bite. Food that has been improperly chewed can cause indigestion in addition to being a possible choking hazard. Fortunately, an open bite can be corrected with ALIGNERCO, improving the appearance of your smile and simplifying eating.

• Clear Speech

  You may not realize it, but your teeth are what allow you to produce specific sounds. The sounds that comprise language are produced by various movements of your lips, tongue, and teeth. Some of the sounds you wish to make may not be possible if your teeth aren’t positioned correctly. Your speech may sound better after getting your teeth straightened.

• Reduced Pain in the Head and Neck

  Temporomandibular joint disease (TMD) can be brought on by crowding of teeth. Those who have had this disease understand how stressful it can be; the tightness in your jaw can radiate to your head, neck, and shoulders. Along with regular headaches, you could also experience back and neck pain, as well as pain and discomfort during chewing. Getting the greatest orthodontic treatment possible from your orthodontist can frequently resolve TMD completely or at least rescue its most severe symptoms.

• Decreased Wear And Tear

  When teeth are misaligned, the force used during biting and chewing is frequently distributed unevenly, which may speed up tooth deterioration. This can eventually result in problems including teeth chipping, enamel loss, and even jaw pain. By ensuring that biting forces are distributed uniformly, ALIGNERCO aligners help you achieve optimal dental alignment and lessen the unnecessary stress placed on individual teeth.
