Tiger teeth are generally considered malocclusions, and many people have their teeth straightened to improve the impact of tiger teeth on the aesthetics and movement of the lips. So what are the after-effects of having your tiger teeth corrected?
Cosmetic impact
After the correction of tiger teeth may cause the skin at the corners of the face to collapse downward, and the face becomes dull and flat, instead of being beneficial to beauty. Especially if the tiger teeth are directly extracted, this sense of holding flat will be more obvious.
Affect the function
The general function of tiger teeth is to shred food, which is strong and powerful, if it is blindly corrected, it is likely to affect its ability to shred food.
Causes loosening of teeth
The formation of tiger teeth is caused by the growth of the teeth next to it, which squeezes out the original position of the teeth, and orthodontic treatment requires moving the teeth next to it, which may cause the tissues around the teeth to shift, resulting in loose teeth.
Causes endodontic disease
If the pressure on the teeth is high during the orthodontic procedure, it is easy to damage the nerve of the tooth, which can cause serious endodontic disease.
Damage to the alveolar bone
The orthodontic treatment of tiger teeth will require the movement of the teeth and the change of the periodontal tissues, which may cause the alveolar bone to become low and the gums to shrink, which is an inevitable sequel to the orthodontic treatment of tiger teeth.
