How Can You Fix the Crooked Teeth

A dentist will most likely suggest several immediate steps that can be done to prevent further harm to the broken tooth. Until he or she conducts a full examination, the dentist won’t know if the break was caused purely by accident or if decay was a contributing factor. He or she may need to install a cap, crown, veneer, or filling. The dentist may need to do a root canal, or send you to an oral surgeon. The list of possible causes and repairs is lengthy, but the steps that should be taken while waiting for a dental appointment are simple.

 

People with crooked teeth have a number of different choices to fix the problem, and which one they pick largely depends on the severity of the misalignment and cause of the shifting. For minor imperfections, tooth reshaping, bonding and veneers are all good options.

 

Traditional and invisible braces work for more moderate adjustments and are usually coupled with follow-up retainer use. Pulling teeth or even breaking the jaw sometimes is needed in extreme cases, but because these are more invasive techniques with a higher risk of complications and infection, dentists usually recommend them only when no other straightening method will provide sufficient results.

 

If the tooth has suffered a severe break and you feel pain, the nerve is likely exposed. To avoid irritating it further, you should avoid foods and liquids that are excessively hot or cold. If possible, save the pieces of the broken tooth, rinse them off, and keep them on ice. There is a chance, if the break was relatively straight and clean, that a dentist can cement the pieces back together. It is usually better to fix a broken tooth than to install a porcelain or ceramic replacement.

 

In many cases, tooth reshaping is done in combination with another procedure called bonding, which involves applying a mixture of quartz and resin right on the natural tooth. The dentist sculpts this material so that it looks smooth and blends well, after which he cures it with a laser and polishes it. Although having this done is cheaper than some other options, the composite that goes on the teeth can stain and is sensitive to high pH and pressure, meaning that it's not good for people who consume lots of acidic or discoloring foods and drinks, or who grind their teeth.

 

As the name implies, this option involves manually contouring the teeth, usually through gentle abrasion and polishing techniques. By doing this, the dentist can remove small imbalances, chips and other minor imperfections that contribute to a crooked look. Often, he can complete all the work in one session, but because the method relies on a person's natural teeth, he generally examines them and performs basic procedures, such as getting dental x-ray machine, to confirm they're strong enough first. The results of dental contouring are very minimal, so it isn't right for someone who has teeth that are very misshapen.
