What are Causes of Teeth Misalignment?

Published on:2019-3-25

The charm of a person depends on the temperament of the person, the books he has read, the people he has contacted with and the world he has visited. Different minds see different worlds. But a person with good temperament, I believe, cares a lot about his appearance, so misaligned teeth won’t be seen on him. I’m wondering if you have ever been curious about what causes misaligned teeth. Let's take a look.

 

Misaligned teeth is mainly caused by acquired factors (bad habits). Generally, 70% of teeth misalignment is caused by bad habits, while the rest by genetic factors. As the acquired factors are the main cause and relatively controllable, teeth can become straight and beautiful by changing the bad habits.

 

Eat Soft Food

 

Soft food is easy and convenient to eat though, eating soft food for a long period of time can lead to insufficient wear of the deciduous canine teeth;

 

Love to Eat Sweets

 

We all know that sweets can damage the teeth. If the deciduous teeth fall off too early, the permanent teeth will not be guided into the proper place.

 

The permanent teeth will still erupt after the deciduous teeth fall off, but without the guidance of the deciduous teeth, the permanent teeth will grow in bad order, and are hardly neat and symmetrical.

 

Bad chewing habits: mostly finger sucking habit, tongue habit, lip biting habit, object biting habit, habit of placing jaw in a protruding position, bad swallowing habit, and one side chewing habit, can cause different types of malocclusion.

 

Parents may havent realized the importance of the kids teeth before. Then now you must pay attention to their eating habits from a young age. It is necessary to take your kids to the dental hospital for check up once or twice a year. Because only with healthy teeth, your kids can smile confidently and brightly.

 

Some people say that their teeth are painful when the wisdom teeth are erupting, but do you know that wisdom teeth may also cause tooth misalignment?

 

When you find that your kids have misaligned teeth, you’d better take them to the dental hospital for orthodontic treatment as soon as possible. If left untreated, it will not only harm the kids psychologically by lessening their self-confidence, but also  impact their physiological development. Moreover, misaligned teeth are difficult to clean up, since there are too many areas that cannot be accessible.
