Did you know that braces generally change the position of the teeth by putting pressure on them? In fact, the pressure on the teeth allows the jaws to move to adapt more. The amount of this movement depends on the amount of pressure generated. The effect of orthodontics on the jaws is manifested by balancing their position.
When the upper and lower teeth do not overlap easily, the position of the jaw becomes difficult. In many cases, the upper jaw or lower jaw is behind or ahead of its normal position, resulting in jaw deformities. Dentists and orthodontists offer a wide range of treatment options, but it may take a year or more for the effect of braces on the jaw to become fully apparent.
