Misaligned Teeth Treatment in White Rock
Improve Your Bite And Smile
Understanding Teeth Misalignment
Malocclusion, or misaligned teeth, can include Crowded Teeth, Dental Spacing, rotations, or bite concerns such as Overbite, Underbite, Crossbite, or Open Bite. These concerns may develop because of genetics, jaw size, tooth position, growth patterns, missing teeth, or certain childhood habits.
Misalignment can affect more than appearance. When teeth do not fit together properly, it can make cleaning more difficult, increase the risk of plaque buildup, contribute to uneven tooth wear, and place extra strain on the jaw. A dental evaluation helps identify the type of misalignment and whether orthodontic treatment may be helpful. Common Causes:
Genetics, Jaw Size, or Natural Growth Patterns
Crowded, Missing, or Unevenly Spaced Teeth
Thumb Sucking, Tongue Habits, or Bite Changes
