Dental deformity will not only affect the facial appearance, but also affect the chewing function and pronunciation function of the mouth, if the patient’s psychological tolerance is weak, there may be a sense of inferiority.
So many people for their own situation, have chosen to orthodontic, but there are also a lot of people doubt, the harm of orthodontic?
There is no age limit for posterior orthodontic teeth. As long as the patient is healthy and has no serious physical disease, he or she can choose to have orthodontic teeth, but there are still some problems in the process of orthodontic teeth that need extra attention.
1, may cause tooth loosening.
Under normal circumstances, teeth can cushion the pressure of chewing through their physiological activity, which prevents tooth damage.
During orthodontic treatment, the tooth will be moved by external forces. Once the tooth is moved, the alveolar bone and periodontal membrane will be reconstructed, which will cause loosening.
But this situation is a normal phenomenon, when the tooth is corrected to the normal position and stops moving, the tooth will become stable after self-repair, and will not cause damage.
2. The pulp may be affected.
At the beginning of orthodontic treatment, the pulp may become slightly inflamed, causing discomfort or pain to the patient. Generally, this situation will recover after a period of time.
3. The height of alveolar bone will be affected.
After orthodontic treatment, the height of the alveolar bone will be slightly reduced. However, after the treatment, the alveolar bone will not be absorbed again and will gradually return to normal.
