Is it necessary to do orthodontics at the age of 30? With the improvement of dental plastic surgery, there is no age limit for orthodontics. As long as there is no temporomandibular joint and periodontal disease, you can have neat teeth through orthodontics. Orthodontics mainly uses the mechanism of tooth movement and alveolar bone growth to apply a certain external force to make teeth move to normal alveolar bone. In addition, the extruded alveolar bone will also move towards the teeth, so that the thickness of the alveolar bone can be maintained, and the alveolar bone will be slowly absorbed, thus returning to normal.
For adults, although the growth and development have stopped, China's ability of regeneration and reconstruction is still intact, and orthodontics can be done as long as there is no periodontal disease. The internal structure of alveolar bone belongs to honeycomb structure, and there will be many bone marrow vessels in the gap. Blood is very rich, metabolism is active, hardness is soft, and growth ability is strong, which can make teeth move freely in alveolar bone, and alveolar bone will grow normally with the movement of teeth.
Why do you need orthodontics? Because uneven teeth will affect oral function, reduce its chewing ability, and even induce gastrointestinal diseases and indigestion, especially severe malocclusion will affect language and pronunciation. When the lower anterior teeth are severely protruded, the swallowing function will be abnormal. When the upper anterior teeth are obviously protruded, the lips cannot be closed freely, which makes people open their mouths and breathe, affecting their faces.
In addition, especially teeth, will make a lot of dental plaque attached nearby, and it is not easy to clean up when brushing your teeth. Inflammation of periodontal tissue easily leads to inflammation of periodontal tissue, which in turn leads to oral odor and bleeding. If it accumulates in the alveolar bone, it will loosen the teeth. In addition, irregular teeth will also affect the growth and beauty of the face.
