Straight teeth look great in pictures and can make your smile stand out, but unfortunately, not many people are born with a set of pearly whites. Wearing braces will help restore your teeth into their correct position. And we have great news. You don’t need to wear metal braces to straighten your teeth and improve your bite – discreet braces can help just as well.
At Cheltenham Spa Dental & Implant Clinic, we have treated patients with many different types of dental misalignment over the years. However, many patients find it difficult to realise the dangers caused by misaligned teeth. Our team of experienced dentists will help you understand the benefits of cosmetic braces in Cheltenham with a focus on your oral health.
Tooth decay and gum disease
Overcrowded teeth that overlap each other, create tiny and tight spaces in your mouth where bacteria can hide easily. Even if you brush and floss every day, it is almost impossible to remove plaque from these hard-to-reach places. And visiting the dentist for cleanings every few months is not financially viable. With braces in Cheltenham, your teeth will become properly aligned again and you will be able to brush and floss them effectively.
Pressure on the jawbone
Besides your oral health, misaligned teeth can also have an impact on your general health. Irregular bite patterns can cause jawbone problems leading to headaches and serious pain. Moreover, problems such as protruding front teeth can also be risky, especially if you are into contact sports. Also, patients with bite problems are at a greater risk of having their teeth chipped and cracked while eating.
Speech difficulties
Our teeth are necessary for speaking and performing many oral activities and when they are not properly aligned many problems can occur, such as lisps. Braces in Cheltenham will help you speak clearly and without problems.
