How is tooth lock to return a responsibility

summary

I'm just an adult this year, but I grew a tiger tooth on my left. I didn't think much about it before. Later, I found that there would be a little bulge in the place where I grew tiger teeth. Recently, my friend had just finished orthodontics and found that the effect was very good. So I wanted to go to the hospital to ask if my tiger teeth could be corrected. When I went to the hospital, the doctor gave me a check, took a film and did some experiments The model said that the left half of my teeth locked too seriously, and it took two or three years to correct. I was a little afraid after hearing that. What is tooth locking? What's going on with the locked teeth? Let's take a look at the following.

How is tooth lock to return a responsibility

First: I consulted with the doctor. The doctor told me that tooth locking is a kind of malocclusion of posterior teeth. There are two kinds of tooth locking: positive locking and reverse locking. But no matter which one is, the harm is really great. In general, there are more cases of positive locking and less cases of reverse locking.

Second: Although there is no uncomfortable feeling of tooth locking at ordinary times, its harm is great. For example, it can reduce chewing function, cause facial asymmetry, induce temporomandibular joint disorders, and also induce deep overbite. Therefore, in order to prevent serious consequences, we should pay attention to it.

Third, the doctor also said that due to the greater impact of occlusion on masticatory function, facial development and the health of masticatory parts, correction should be carried out as soon as possible. The treatment principle of occlusion correction is to move the upper and lower posterior teeth on the premise of increasing occlusion, and release the occlusion relationship to the side of face or tongue, so as to achieve normal occlusion.

matters needing attention

1. For the sake of our own health, we should pay more attention to prevention, not chewing on one side for a long time, and pay attention to the protection and treatment of deciduous teeth. 2. We should develop good oral care habits, timely extraction of wisdom teeth, and regular oral examination, early detection, early examination and early treatment, so as to avoid serious consequences.
