Fortunately, there are several treatments available to correct this problem.<\/p>\n<p>Would you like to know what to do to correct misaligned teeth? The team of dentists at Clinique Dentaire 1935 in Montreal will explain the causes and various treatment options for misaligned teeth.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the causes of misaligned teeth?<\/h2>\n<p>Most misalignment of teeth is caused by events that occur during childhood. There are many causes that can lead to this phenomenon.<\/p>\n<h3>Overlapping teeth<\/h3>\n<p>Teeth overlap when there is not enough room in the jaws for all the teeth. This causes them to press against each other and not line up properly.<\/p>\n<p>One reason teeth overlap is because there is not enough space between the <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/blogue\/losing-baby-teeth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">baby teeth<\/a>. Since permanent teeth are on average 1.5 times larger than baby teeth, if there is not enough space between them, then you are more likely to have overlapping teeth and long-term misalignment.<\/p>\n<h3>Late sucking<\/h3>\n<p>Sucking is another reason why teeth may not be aligned. If a baby sucks their thumb or uses a pacifier for too long (beyond age 2), then this can cause the jaw to become deformed, preventing it from developing properly. The teeth will also be pushed forward and create an arch shape.<\/p>\n<h3>Overbite or underbite between the upper and lower teeth<\/h3>\n<p>When the upper teeth overlap with the lower teeth too much, it is called an overbite. This alteration can be due to genetics, poor <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/dental-care\/dental-cleaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">teeth cleaning<\/a> habits or the fact that the bone supporting the teeth has grown too much.<\/p>\n<p>When the lower row of teeth is in front of the upper row of teeth, it is called an underbite. There are many causes of an underbite, such as an underdeveloped upper jaw or an overdeveloped lower jaw.<\/p>\n<p>Overbite and underbite can be the reason your teeth are misaligned.<\/p>\n<h3>Ectopic tooth eruption<\/h3>\n<p>Ectopic tooth eruption is when a permanent tooth comes out in an abnormal position and remains in the bone tissue. This can lead to problems with tooth alignment, especially with the canines.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the symptoms of misaligned teeth?<\/h2>\n<p>Misaligned teeth can impact your health in addition to your confidence. Moreover, if your misaligned teeth problem is not corrected quickly, then you could see health problems arise, which is why it is important to contact a <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/contact\/\">Montreal teeth alignment dentist<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Development of cavities<\/h3>\n<p>Misalignment of teeth can promote the development of <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/blogue\/dental-cavities-symptoms-treatment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dental cavities<\/a>. <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/blogue\/bruxism-teeth-grinding\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bruxism<\/a> is also a common problem caused by misaligned teeth, which leads to enamel wear. Having crooked teeth can also cause significant pain or digestive problems.<\/p>\n<h3>Degradation of sleep quality<\/h3>\n<p>Dental misalignments can cause sleep disturbances and back problems. People often unconsciously press on their teeth, which over time causes neck strain, headaches, and insomnia. If your jaw is misaligned, you may stop breathing while you sleep. This is called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/public-health\/services\/chronic-diseases\/sleep-apnea.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sleep apnea<\/a>. It&#8217;s important to correct misaligned teeth as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the treatments to correct misaligned teeth?<\/h2>\n<p>There are various treatments to correct misaligned teeth. Learn about some of these solutions below.<\/p>\n<h3>Braces<\/h3>\n<p>When we want to correct the alignment of our teeth, there are several orthodontic treatments that can be performed in a dental clinic. Misaligned teeth can be corrected with the placement of braces on the surface of the teeth. Braces can also be placed on the back of the teeth for more discrete treatment.<\/p>\n<h3>CEREC dental restoration<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/cosmetic-dentistry\/cerec-treatment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CEREC dental restoration<\/a> is another treatment option for misaligned teeth that is gaining in popularity.<\/p>\n<p>This process involves precise diamond cutting into a ceramic block to create a made-to-measure appliance. CEREC restorations perfectly mimic the natural structure and color of your teeth.<\/p>\n<h3>Tooth extraction<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to orthodontic treatment, misaligned teeth can also be corrected by performing a <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/dental-care\/dental-extractions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tooth extraction<\/a>. The removal of one or more teeth will free up space in the mouth and align the teeth.<\/p>\n<p>This procedure, whether simple or surgical, requires good planning. Before proceeding, your dentist will carefully examine your condition so that appropriate care can be provided.<\/p>\n<h2>Fix your misaligned teeth at Clinique Dentaire 1935<\/h2>\n<p>Misaligned teeth can be corrected with various orthodontic treatments such as CEREC technology. In addition, tooth extraction can, in some cases, help create more space to correct misaligned teeth.<\/p>\n<p>If you wish to correct your tooth alignment, we invite you to <a href=\"https:\/\/cliniquedentaire1935.ca\/en\/contact\/\">make an appointment with us<\/a>.
