If Crooked Front Teeth Make It Hard to Smile, a Teeth Straightening Solution in Sangil-dong

Hello~

I’m Lee Juri, the chief director of Seoul Bardi Dental Clinic.

I don’t want to take photos because my front teeth look unattractive... If you keep noticing your front teeth every time you look in the mirror,

it’s natural to start worrying about how others see you and feel self-conscious.

Are you still only searching online about whether or not to get orthodontic treatment?

Crowded teeth that are unevenly aligned are not just uncomfortable to look at.

They make brushing difficult, which can lead to cavities, food gets stuck between the teeth often, and in severe cases, they can even cause temporomandibular joint pain or gum disease.

For those considering orthodontic treatment in Sangil-dong, I’ll organize the key things you should know, from the causes of crowded front teeth to the timing and methods of treatment.

What are crowded front teeth? Why do they happen?

Crowded front teeth refer to a condition in which, when permanent teeth come in, there is not enough space, or the teeth are misaligned so the front teeth overlap.

As shown in the photo, some teeth may sit farther inward than other teeth, or in some cases they may protrude,

but you can think of it as an uneven tooth alignment.

The main causes are as follows:

• Teeth are large compared to the size of the jawbone
• Baby teeth fall out too early, or on the contrary, too late
• Oral habits (thumb sucking, mouth breathing, etc.)

In particular, for modern people,

jawbones have become smaller while tooth size often remains the same, so crowding due to lack of space has become common.

It is not just a cosmetic issue.

Teeth that are set inward and teeth that protrude, with irregular alignment, make brushing difficult,

and there can be blind spots where cleaning is not done properly, right??

The risk of cavities and gum disease can increase, and because the bite does not fit properly, strain may be placed on the temporomandibular joint.

The biggest problem is psychological self-consciousness, which is related to a decrease in confidence.

In particular, because the front teeth are a key area that determines a person’s impression, this can also come with stress about appearance.

I remember a patient who shared their concern, saying, “I think it’s hard to get a job because of my front teeth..”

The methods used to treat crowded teeth include orthodontic treatment and prosthetic treatment.

If the problem is limited only to the front teeth, prosthetic treatment may be worth considering,

but

if there are also bite problems, orthodontic treatment is recommended to move the teeth overall and rearrange them.

At Sangil-dong orthodontic treatment, the following methods are used.

Considering the condition of the teeth and the patient’s age, partial orthodontics, full orthodontics

Whether extraction is needed or treatment can proceed without extraction, whether to choose clear aligners or bracket-based wire orthodontics.

Because the options differ depending on the degree of crowding, a precise diagnosis is essential.

Orthodontic treatment is not something you have to do just because someone tells you to.

When you look in the mirror and don’t like your smile, if you think, “Should I change this now?”, that is exactly the right time to start.
