Many people desire a straighter smile so that they feel more confident in their appearance. When teeth are gapped, crooked or crowded, it can mean the difference between feeling your best or wishing you felt better about your smile.
But did you know that a straight smile also makes your smile healthier? A true win-win! Read on for more on this topic.
Could you benefit from a straighter smile?
In addition to better confidence in yourself, a straight smile can help to avoid plaque and tartar from forming. Crooked teeth often mean it is easier for food to get stuck and build up between teeth, putting you at risk for the aforementioned. Crooked teeth, in general, are more difficult to keep clean.
Additionally, teeth that are crooked, gapped and crowded can cause difficulty while flossing, hence making gums inflamed. This can lead to gum disease and infection. And, when teeth are aligned, they are not as likely to have discoloration or sensitivity. Further, misaligned teeth can even cause headaches and TMJ.
Overall, when your teeth are properly aligned your health can be better. What’s more, you can save money on potential bills for dental work that you may need if teeth are compromised by misalignment. Preventative measures are always best to avoid worse issues in the future.
With options like Invisalign Clear Aligners and even porcelain veneers, we can work with you on a solution that is right for you.
