The quest for the perfect Hollywood smile often overshadows the profound health benefits that braces offer. Sure, a stunning smile can open doors, boost self-esteem and enhance overall happiness, but as dental aficionados, we’re here to unveil the less glamorous yet crucial reasons behind prescribing braces.

Braces: Safeguarding Your Oral Health for Life

Beyond the aesthetics, braces play a pivotal role in securing your oral and systemic well-being. Your jaw exerts hundreds of pounds of force each day. For teeth to withstand this force for a potential 90 years or more, proper alignment is non-negotiable.

Firstly, braces align upper and lower teeth, crucial for handling daily forces. Early intervention, often before age 7, sets the foundation. Think of it as a preemptive strike – headgear, rubber bands or expanders may come into play (like it did for this contributor!).

Expanding Your Jaw: Strengthening Your Bite, One Turn at a Time

Have you ever seen a stool with close-set legs? It tips quite easily. Similarly, a narrow dental arch struggles with jaw forces. Expanders come to the rescue, gradually widening your arches with a nightly turn of the key tool. Stability in your occlusion (how your teeth interact) is the goal.

While some discomfort is to be expected, that unease will increase if the areas around the expander aren't cleaned. Unlike most other devices, UFloss can reach most of these areas, removing plaque to safeguard your mouth.

Uprighting and Correcting: A Dental Ballet

Braces do more than align; they correct tipped and rotated teeth. Tipped teeth, when subjected to vertical pressure, lead to gum recession and other issues. It’s a bit like hammering a nail into wood at an angle – hit it straight, and the base bends.

Optimal Teeth Alignment for Easy Cleaning

Ensuring your teeth are positioned ideally is not just for show; it's the key to making your daily brushing and flossing routine efficient. With braces, this routine can be challenging due to crowding, but the payoff is significant – it sets the groundwork for successful fillings and crowns.

Caring for your teeth is a lifelong job, brushing and flossing twice a day. Toothbrushing and flossing become a challenge with crowding. The ideal teeth alignment enhances the success of fillings and crowns.
