Crooked teeth often become the subject of concern and a reason to knock on the door of a specialist. Sometimes, the denture has simple malformations that are not likely to adversely affect our health, while other times there is a deformity that is derived from skeletal malformations and must be treated medically, with the purpose of restoring the tooth in the correct position.
In the first case, when the problem is just cosmetic, guide us the desire to increase self-confidence, which offers a healthy and beautiful smile. The special dentist or dental technologist proposes a number of solutions and we have to choose one of the available methods of intervention in the denture us. What do we do, then? We know the benefits or the disadvantages of the aesthetic intervention?
The identification of the problem:
When we talk about crooked teeth, essentially we are talking about the misalignment of the teeth in our. Through the years, this situation can lead to even pain in the oral cavity. The main reason is that our teeth have a bad convergence. The deeper causes of the good alignment of the teeth can be hereditary or may have been affected by the early fall of deciduous teeth during childhood (6-12 years old). If, indeed, we have lost baby teeth earlier than normal, then it is likely to have shifted some of the neighboring teeth until the appearance of the permanent tooth, and so the new tooth takes on a warped direction as it grows.
What improvement solutions are there?
The orthodontic intervention is considered to be reliable and safe for decades. The dental technologist proposes some methods of alignment of the teeth and the patients – usually – choose placement of the add-sided resin or ceramic veneers (porcelain veneers). Nevertheless, the problem of alignment may be dealt with on the surface, as it is a masking solutions that provide a relatively quick aesthetic result, however, does not give a radical solution to the alignment of the teeth.
What you have to think about it before I choose porcelain veneers;
The easy – but not always the appropriate solution – is the ceramic veneers (porcelain veneers). The sides (cases) teeth are placed on the surface of the teeth by the dentist or the dental technician, who must be well trained and familiar with this kind of aesthetic intervention, so the result is the desired one. The installation procedure must be executed correctly in all of the stages, so that the trays can remain for years in their position and don't happen to unexpected failures or cracks.
In addition, the expert need to sharpen and to remove the layer of natural enamel, in order to "make room" on the tooth and place the trays. This means that, if the patient wishes at some point in his life to remove the porcelain veneers, then the natural teeth will not have this layer of enamel that protects a tooth.
Finally, the friction wheel is painless and generally harmless, but it is still a foreign intervention in our teeth. The τροχισμός of the enamel of natural teeth, which is usually required before the application sided resin, is not recommended in cases of sensitive teeth.
With regard to the cost of ceramic veneers, is undoubtedly high (400-600€ for each case of a tooth). However, what is important is to address the problem of misaligned teeth from the root, and not to be a superficial intervention.
Orthodontic approach: it is the best alternative?
Usually, we think, the crooked teeth is not only an aesthetic problem and has nothing to do with orthodontics. This is a common misunderstanding," because it makes the problem seem simple, but the situation is complicated. Orthodontic technology deals with issues of alignment of teeth and their faces through specialized observation, and not simply as an aesthetic correction that gives immediate results.

Braces exert a uniform and constant pressure on the teeth, designed to move in their proper place. Metal braces are the traditional type of splint and can be used for the correction of most dental problems. Ceramic braces are exactly the same with the metal, but it's less obvious. In this case, the supports of the ceramic braces may be transparent or the color of the teeth, while the cables are undetected.

The patient discusses treatment options with the dental technician and consult until the end of the. The transparent aligners are undoubtedly competitive cost as compared with the other treatments without fall short of efficiency. A proper solution for crooked teeth is proving far more profitable in the long run, because you avoid unpleasant complications in the denture.
That's wrong with our teeth might bring us in embarrassment, and it is important to choose a real and effective solution. In accordance with a qualified dental technologists, the orthodontic improvements misaligned teeth need to be ahead of the aesthetic interventions.
