What do we need to pay attention to in orthodontic teeth? Dental deformity will not only affect the appearance of our teeth, but also increase the probability of oral diseases. What should we pay attention to in orthodontic teeth here?
1. Adult orthodontics is often accompanied by other oral diseases, such as caries, periodontal disease, missing teeth, tooth attrition, residual crown, residual root, poor intraoral restorations, temporomandibular joint diseases, etc.
Therefore, before starting orthodontic treatment, patients should go to the corresponding stomatological hospital to do a comprehensive examination, control the dental and periodontal diseases, remove the intraoral prosthesis, otherwise it will affect the wearing of the appliance and tooth movement.
2. Adults should carry out orthodontic treatment under good oral hygiene conditions. In the process of orthodontic treatment, special attention should be paid to the maintenance of oral hygiene.
3. Adult growth and development have basically stopped, alveolar bone remodeling is relatively slow, tooth movement is relatively slow, and the required treatment time is long. Therefore, we should be patient with the doctor and not rush to achieve success.
4. Adults are prone to relapse after orthodontic treatment, so we should pay attention to maintenance after treatment, and wear the activity retainer as long as possible.
5. Common adult malocclusions include uneven tooth crowding, anterior teeth space, anterior teeth regurgitation, maxillary teeth and jaw protrusion.
Facial asymmetry caused by mandibular deviation.
For moderate to severe osseous malocclusion, only moving the teeth can not achieve ideal results.
