My front teeth are crooked. What can be done?

May 14, 2012
Comments are off

In addition to being a cosmetic issue, crooked teeth can cause serious complications and long-term health problems if left untreated. Fortunately, there are solutions for children and adults who are affected by crooked teeth.

Problems Associated with Crooked Teeth

Properly aligned teeth provide support for each other and for the entire mouth. Crooked teeth, however, do not and can cause jaw and muscle strain, leaving the mouth vulnerable to injury. People who have crooked teeth may also suffer from tooth pain or sensitivity and may have an increased risk for tooth decay and gingivitis.

Depending on the degree of crowding, there are a number of treatments available.

The teeth can be straightened with braces but veneers may be used when minor alignment adjustments are required. Veneers are like false fingernails that are bonded over the teeth to improve colour and shape. There is minimal tooth preparation required to bond veneers over the teeth, they can last for years and you would never know they are there.

Talk to your dentist to find out which treatment is best for you.

Our Patients Say:

  • My wife and I live in Powell River.  Dr. Hynd and his staff are so professional and up-to-date on the latest and best procedures that it is worth the trip.  We appreciate the friendly and caring attention.

  • Dr. Hynd is an excellent dentist. I've been seeing him for about 5 years and he genuinely cares about his patients and is very gentle and compassionate. He's also an excellent implant dentist. He's done one dental implant for me and is scheduled to do another soon. I highly recommend him and his caring staff.
