Dr. Behjou answers questions about orthodontic problems

 |
"Dr. Behjou, what causes orthodontic problems?"
|
| |
Most
orthodontic problems
are inherited, including tooth size and jaw size. Overbites, underbites, extra or
missing teeth, and irregularities of the jaw, teeth, and face also
are inherited.
Other orthodontic problems can be caused from accidents, pacifiers or
thumb sucking, dental disease, or the premature loss of either the
primary or permanent teeth.
|
 |
"What habits contribute to
"bad bites? " |
| |
At Lower Azusa Dental Group, we see a number of childhood habits that can lead to
orthodontic problems, such as
thumb or finger sucking, sucking on a pacifier, sucking on a lip, mouth
breathing, fingernail
biting, and "tongue thrust".
For more information about how we at Lower Azusa Dental Group can help you with dental braces, call us at (626) 448-2040, we will be happy to talk with you. |
