Many people are plagued by dental inalignment in their lives. It not only affects our external appearance, but also brings a lot of harm to our oral cavity.
But there are many people who are indifferent to the alignment of teeth, so as to miss the best time to correct, resulting in a series of symptoms.
So what are the dangers of abnormal tooth alignment?
The first harm of abnormal tooth arrangement: the teeth are not aligned, which affects the cleaning of teeth and weakens the self-cleaning effect of teeth.
In the first place, the irregular alignment of teeth will cause the accumulation of food residue between the teeth, which will weaken the function of the teeth and make it difficult to clean the teeth.
As you can easily imagine, misaligned teeth are less likely to clean food residue thoroughly during brushing and flossing, and are therefore more likely to form soft stains, plaques, and calculus than straight teeth, leading to a series of dental injuries.
Second: the teeth are not aligned to affect the occlusal relationship between the upper and lower teeth, and then affect the normal chewing function, reduce the efficiency of chewing, over time, may cause dyspepsia and gastrointestinal dysfunction.
Third: the teeth are not aligned, affecting development: some teeth are not aligned, will hinder the normal development of the upper and lower dental arch jaw, so that the deformity is more and more serious.
For example, the anterior teeth are inverted, the lower anterior teeth are covered outside the upper teeth, and the lower dental arch blocks the forward development of the upper teeth, so that the development of the maxilla is also affected;
The mandible develops excessively forward, resulting in the central depression of the face.
It is commonly known as “Dibao Tian”.
4. Misalignment of teeth affects dental prosthesis. Misalignment of teeth near the place where the prosthesis is needed may have adverse effects on dental prosthesis.
Severe dental misalignment can affect the function of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) due to the dysfunction of mandibular movement, which can lead to functional and organic lesions of the joint.
At this time, you may feel the pain of the temporomandibular joint part, bounce, and even can not open the mouth, very painful, and there is no good way to treat, sometimes can only be treated by dental surgery!
Fifth: easy to suffer from dental disease: the teeth are not neatly arranged, it is difficult to keep the mouth clean, because it is not easy to brush the teeth clean, tartar often accumulates in the teeth, forming an ideal place for bacterial breeding, so that the teeth are prone to dental caries, and the gums are also easily inflamed.
Some teeth with bad occlusion relationship, when chewing food, individual teeth collide with each other up and down, teeth are often subjected to abnormal pressure, so that the periodontal support tissue, periodontal membrane and alveolar bone by the heavy impact, causing periodontal tissue disease.
