Everyone’s set of teeth looks slightly different and it’s perfectly fine. But imagine your child being bullied at school and in the streets by their classmates just because of the way their teeth looked, their smile becomes a poison for them and a laughing stock for the others. Anyone would hate to have their child bear this trauma and even if we hate it, we cannot deny its presence.
Let's for a second forget the emotional trauma and look at it from the angle of alignment. These dental misalignments can cause problems when you chew, speak, and breathe. They can increase the risk of gum disease and tooth decay too.
Your complete guide to straightening your bottom teeth
Your teeth are great the way they are until they become a hazard to your other teeth and your oral health. You need to figure out if your teeth are in the right place. To make the assessment process easy for you we have created a teeth survey.
Front view: assessing your smile
-
Alignment check: Your bottom teeth should sit just behind your upper teeth when closed.
-
Crowding/Gaps: Look for overlapping or spaced teeth affecting symmetry.
Top view: evaluating the dental arch
-
Arch shape: Bottom teeth should form a smooth, U-shaped curve.
-
Crowding issues: Tight spacing can trap plaque, increasing decay risk.
Side view: checking bite alignment
-
Ideal bite: Bottom teeth should lightly touch the back of upper front teeth.
-
Overbite/Underbite: Misalignment strains jaw muscles and causes uneven wear.
