Dental orthodontics is a medical field that corrects the position of teeth and jaws. This treatment improves the appearance and function of the mouth and teeth and may be necessary for people who have problems such as swelling or crooked teeth. We will discuss this issue further. **The importance of dental orthodontics** Dental orthodontics is not only for beauty, but it is very important for the overall health of the mouth and teeth and even the general health of the body. Misaligned and crowded teeth make thorough cleaning difficult and cause the accumulation of plaque and food particles. This greatly increases the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. By arranging the teeth, orthodontics provides the possibility of correct brushing and flossing and improves oral hygiene. **Benefits of dental orthodontics** The advantages of dental orthodontics briefly and comprehensively include the following: - ### **reducing the risk of decay and gum disease** Neat teeth are easier to clean and the accumulation of plaque and bacteria is reduced. - ### **reduction of abnormal teeth wear** Another benefit of correct bite orthodontics (jaw alignment) is that it distributes pressure evenly on the teeth and prevents unbalanced wear. - ### **Better bone and gum health** With dental orthodontics, the chewing forces are proportionally transferred to the bone and gum. - ### **reducing the pressure on the teeth and jaw** Correct distribution of chewing forces causes less pressure on a particular tooth or area. - ### **improving the overall appearance of the face** In some cases, orthodontics can also have a positive effect on the symmetry and profile of the face. - ### **longer life of teeth** By reducing wear, breakage and decay, natural teeth will have a longer life. **The best dental office in Sanandaj** **Dr. Sajjad Zafari** works in Sanandaj.
