Will dental surgery change the shape of the face?

Orthodontics can indeed change the shape of the face. Orthodontics is medically known as orthodontics. Orthodontics can improve the facial curves of the human body to a great extent and have a positive effect on the facial shape. Orthodontics also improves a person's oral hygiene. When teeth are crooked, food can easily get trapped in the gaps between teeth, causing bacteria to grow.

Benefits of dental braces

Orthodontics is the process of slowly returning teeth to their normal position through braces, and improving the patient's chewing function by changing their dentition and bite. In most clinical orthodontic cases, the range of tooth movement is in the front-to-back direction, so the appearance of the outer side of the face changes the most relatively speaking. However, after orthodontic treatment, the facial shape of a large number of patients has changed and become more beautiful.

For example, overbite not only affects appearance but also health, especially for children, the earlier the better. So how to treat tooth overbite?

How to correct overbite?

1. Ordinary orthodontics

The metal bracket is bonded to the surface of the teeth. By adjusting the curvature of the steel wire, biological force is applied to the dentition, slowly stretching the teeth toward the correction target, ultimately achieving the orthodontic purpose.

2. Aesthetic orthodontics

Orthodontics incorporates aesthetic concepts on the basis of traditional orthodontics. The purpose of orthodontics is not only to align teeth, but also to consider the orthodontic effect through multiple aspects such as the beauty of the correction, whether it is natural, comfort, oral health, and oral function. Aesthetic orthodontics uses a number of world-leading orthodontic technologies from the United States, South Korea's Sapphire, International AO, etc., and improves the technology based on the oral environment and tooth shape characteristics of the Chinese people, to form a tooth correction plan that is more suitable for the Chinese people.

3. Invisible orthodontics

Invisible orthodontics has set a precedent for bracketless orthodontics. Based on the orthodontic plan, computer 3D design is used to produce fully transparent braces, which are easy for patients to put on and take off. They are also invisible even when worn face to face at a close distance, making them beautiful and invisible.

4. Rapid orthodontics

Many patients are reluctant to choose orthodontics and hope to solve the problem of crooked teeth more quickly. With the development of oral medical technology, many rapid orthodontic technologies have emerged, such as AO self-ligating rapid orthodontics and aesthetic zirconium ceramic crown orthodontics, which can quickly correct your teeth, but the limitations of aesthetic zirconium ceramic crown orthodontics are limited. Follow dentist Ren Huan on Weibo and send him a private message telling him about your dental problems to get a free checkup with him.

There are also cases such as underbite, also known as "underbite", where the lower teeth bite the outside of the upper teeth. Relatively speaking, after this type of teeth is corrected, the face shape will be significantly improved.

For example, in the case of protruding teeth, the lips will become stronger as the front teeth move backwards, so that the front teeth are not allowed to be exposed.

The effect of orthodontic treatment on changing facial shape varies from person to person and not everyone can do it. The editor looked at the relevant data and found that about 65% of patients had their facial shape changed after orthodontic treatment. However, I think that the face shape will definitely not become uglier, and dental health always comes first.

Dangers of crooked teeth

The harm of uneven teeth is not only that it affects the appearance of the face, but also makes one look ugly with a protruding mouth, like the Yuanmou Man who was not well evolved. The most painful thing is to laugh and joke in front of others. If you have buck teeth, I guess you would be afraid to laugh in public.

More importantly, it affects oral health and facial development, and induces more oral problems. The teeth are crooked. When you look in the mirror, you can clearly see that the gaps between the teeth are misaligned and look messy like cracked land. The color between the gaps is even more yellow and soft plaque has stuck tightly to them. It is difficult to reach these places when brushing your teeth, and food debris and dental plaque that cannot be cleaned away accumulate here for a long time. The plaque and food debris rot and ferment to produce acid, which induces caries and forms tartar, gingivitis, and periodontal disease.

People with crooked teeth may also have this problem. There was something stuck in my teeth. I licked it with my tongue, picked it out with my fingers, and picked it out with a toothpick. After a lot of effort, I found that there was also something in the gap between my other teeth. Another problem is that it is inconvenient to eat, it is difficult to chew food, and even the pronunciation and speech are unclear. This is because uneven teeth will affect the tooth occlusion function, and in severe cases it will cause swallowing abnormalities.

Note:

Oral health is an important part of overall health. Oral lesions reduce the body's immunity and increase the incidence of diseases such as oral cancer.
