Can orthodontic treatment fix my crooked teeth?

Asked a year ago
Yes, orthodontic treatment can effectively fix crooked teeth. Orthodontics focuses on aligning irregularities in teeth and jaws to improve both aesthetics and functionality. By utilizing braces or aligners, orthodontic treatment gradually guides teeth into their correct positions over time. These appliances apply gentle, consistent pressure on the teeth, gradually shifting them into alignment. With this process, crooked teeth can be straightened and realigned to create a more harmonious smile. In addition to enhancing appearance, straight teeth promote better oral hygiene, reduce the risk of tooth decay and gum disease, along with improving overall mouth function. Consulting with a skilled orthodontist will help determine the best treatment approach for achieving a beautifully aligned, healthy smile.
