Perfectly straight teeth are made using braces, which are usually recommended by your dentist during childhood. This doesn’t mean that you can’t start treatment as an adult. If you are thinking about choosing braces then we think that reading this blog will be a good idea so you’ll know what you need to do to prepare for the treatment.
Lingual braces or Incognito are metal braces that fit behind your teeth to offer a discreet straightening process. They move the teeth in exactly the same way as metal braces do, however, instead of there being pressure on the front of the teeth, it is on the back.
Crooked teeth can cause many problems, so getting them fixed will be beneficial. Your teeth, gums and jaw muscles can start to wear. Your teeth may become cracked and you may feel some strain to your jaw. Depending on the severity of your case, you may experience some minor speech problems because your teeth can affect the way you sound.
