What is Crowding?
Crowded teeth are a very common and obvious problem. Teeth overlap and can even
become twisted when there isn’t enough room for them in the mouth.
Causes
Crowding can be caused by having a jaw that’s smaller than ideal for all your teeth, but often it is also caused by tooth angles or molars that aren’t rotated correctly. Crowding tends to worsen as you age if not corrected.
If you don’t fix it
Crowded teeth are hard to clean between, making them prone to collecting dental debris and putting them at risk for tooth decay and gum disease. They are also at high risk of premature wear and fracture.
How to correct Crowding
Reveal® Clear Aligners can correct tooth crowding, by correcting teeth angles and rotation as well as their position within the jawbone.
