HOW TO PREVENT CROOKED TEETH
Method 1
You ought to lie on your back when you sleep. Gentle, consistent internal force by the lips and external force by the tongue induce crowding. Lying on your belly, which also puts a lot of pressure on your face, is one of the most prevalent causes of this. This pressure can worsen if you sleep on your stomach and face with your arm or something firm beneath your head. To keep your teeth from moving, try sleeping on your back or side.
Method 2
Throughout the day, avoid resting your face on your hand. When working or studying, many of us sag forward in order rest our heads in our hands. When you sag forward at your work area and lay your face on your hand, you put a lot of strain on one side of your jaw. This pressure can gradually force the teeth inward, causing crooked teeth on a single side of your face.
• Maintain excellent posture by sitting flat on your bottom rather than rolled back against the lower spine to help avoid this. Balancing your torso will assist you in better positioning your upper body to reduce neck fatigue.
Method 3
Stop sucking your thumb and other oral habits. Outward strain on the mouth might result in crooked teeth. 816
This is especially frequent in children who suck their thumbs persistently; nevertheless, many adults and adolescents are also guilty of outward pressure-causing activities. Using straws, chewing on pens, and blowing bubbles with gum all employ force similar to thumb sucking and can result in externally crooked teeth. Any practices that put outward strain on the teeth should be avoided.
If you must use a straw, make sure it is positioned toward the rear of your mouth and not toward your teeth.
Method 4
Orthodontics bridges the space between missing teeth. While it is common for baby teeth to fall out and be replaced by permanent teeth, losing permanent teeth as a grownup can result in problems such as misaligned teeth. Adults may have tooth loss owing to extractions, dental disorders, accidents, or permanent teeth that do not descend upon the baby teeth when they come out. The gap left by the missing tooth puts additional strain on the remaining teeth. To avoid misaligned teeth, fix the gap with bracing, dental bridges, dental implants, or false teeth.
• Additionally, "mesialization," a normal process where teeth prefer to come forward, results in teeth moving into gaps that already exist.
Method 5
When the moment is right, have your wisdom teeth removed. When your wisdom teeth erupt, they frequently crowd your other teeth, which can lead to alignment issues. When your wisdom teeth erupt, discuss with your dentist or orthodontist if you should have them extracted so they don't affect the rest of your teeth.
• Other problems, including infections and difficulties chewing, can be brought on by wisdom teeth. As your wisdom teeth erupt, make sure to visit your dentist frequently and have x-rays taken to monitor the situation. 816
