Braces in and of themselves won't damage your teeth. Poor oral hygiene while wearing braces, on the other hand, will damage tooth enamel. Despite wearing braces, you should brush your teeth at least twice a day. Research has shown that the orthodontic movement of the teeth through the constant force of braces causes root damage in almost 100% of patients.
This means that orthodontic treatment dissolves part of the roots and, as a result, some teeth may be lost over time. The use of intermittent forces and removable appliances has been shown to cause little or no damage to the roots. The animation shown in the image represents the damage to the root of the tooth caused by orthodontic appliances. While braces themselves don't harm your teeth, they can make your teeth more prone to plaque and bacteria.
That's why it's so important to brush and floss your teeth regularly during treatment. Food particles can stick to cables and supports. Patients should also brush their teeth and floss carefully to ensure that their brackets are properly cleaned. While having braces tends to create beautiful, healthy smiles that patients are proud to show off, this doesn't mean that as long as you have braces, you shouldn't still care for them.
Because traditional metal braces have grooves and grooves that can trap food particles. If left unattended, they can cause serious risks of tooth decay and gum problems while wearing braces. As for traditional metal braces, the orthodontist will reiterate the importance of caring for braces and teeth. Long-term stability is a common problem with traditional orthodontic methods and, in most cases, treatment will cause a relapse, unless the teeth are permanently preserved.
The results of the univariate statistical analysis, which evaluated the difference in enamel thickness after orthodontic treatment depending on the adhesive system, did not confirm the relationship between the thickness of the enamel tissue after completing the orthodontic treatment and the adhesive system. The teeth with the orthodontic brackets fixed were stored in demineralized water at room temperature for 24 hours. Still, if you ask dentists and orthodontists if there's a relationship between braces and poor gum health, you'll get different answers depending on who you talk to, says Kelly Blodgett, a dentist in Portland, Oregon. Taking this hypothesis into account, the presented article examined the effect of the enamel engraving method on its thickness before and after orthodontic treatment.
Orthodontics with braces has been used for decades to straighten teeth in early adolescence, when all of the permanent teeth have appeared, and while it is effective in forcing teeth to line up straighter, it's important to recognize that there are well-documented disadvantages. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out research on the state of tooth enamel after orthodontic treatment, depending on the techniques and materials used to fix the brackets. The orthodontic hook was placed in the center of the mesial-distal axis of the tooth, moving its center 3.5 mm away from the edge of the occlusal surface. The orthodontic composite material Transbond XT Light Cure Adhesive was applied to the surface of the support.
It's always best to see a dentist or orthodontist to find out what practices might help reduce the chances of tooth decay or gum disease. In both groups, metal orthodontic brackets were attached and the enamel was cleaned with a cutter fixed on the micromotor after removing them. A) The thickness of the enamel (μm) on the vestibular surface of the teeth after the end of orthodontic treatment in the groups that used the fifth generation system. In the second group, the orthodontic brackets were fixed to the tooth surface using self-engraving priming (seventh generation system).
The purpose of engraving is the partial dissolution of the minerals in the enamel, which allows the mechanical retention of the orthodontic resin in the pores of the tissue created by an inorganic acid. .
