Leaving dental alignment problems untreated can lead to more severe problems in the future, such as periodontal disease, tooth loss, premature enamel wear, and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders.
Crooked or misaligned teeth are harder to clean, which increases the risk of plaque buildup and the development of cavities.
A misaligned smile or incorrect bite can negatively affect self-esteem and confidence, particularly in social interactions.
