Misaligned Teeth

Worried about misaligned teeth? Unhappy with the results of previous or current orthodontic treatment? Or just had enough of living with an untreated wonky smile?

Whether you’ve worn braces before or you’re seeking professional help for malocclusion for the first time, we’re here to help.

What causes misaligned teeth?

Malocclusion is the name given to misaligned teeth. It’s a relatively common condition – which is often inherited – although there can be other contributing factors, such as:

• Teeth that are too big for the jaw, causing crowding
• A lost or impacted tooth
• A cleft lip or palate
• Bad habits in early years – such as thumb sucking, prolonged dummy use or bottle feeding
• Accident or injury
• Poor dental care

Symptoms of misaligned teeth

Typically, the biggest symptom of malocclusion is the impact on self-esteem – misaligned teeth can play a big part in how you feel about your smile and appearance.

Although less common, misaligned teeth can also cause pain and discomfort when biting and chewing – making it impossible to enjoy certain foods.

Other complications include speech impediments and mouth breathing.
