A person with straight teeth is 58% more likely to be thought of as successful.

Why is it so important to have straight teeth?

Having straight teeth and the process of getting them straightened isn’t only about aesthetics. A mouth full of straight teeth is far more likely to be healthier, as there is less chance for food and plaque to be stuck in hard to reach places than when teeth are crowded together.

On the other side of the coin, larger gaps in teeth leave the gums more exposed and teeth are less stable, meaning that in an accident they are more likely to be knocked out. Missing teeth lead to a whole host of complications such as poorer nutrition, jawbone degradation, infection and gum disease.

The process of getting straight teeth is important as well. Many people report a change in their diet for the better whilst having treatment, as they are more aware of what they are eating and putting into their mouths on a day-to-day basis. When patients are more considerate about what they are putting into their bodies, their entire well-being takes a turn for the better.

As people invest time and money into looking after themselves, they naturally feel more inclined to respect themselves more. This is important as self-respect teaches a person to stand up for what they believe in, take the opportunities that are available to them and make themselves heard. By speaking to a dental professional about the options that are available regarding lingual braces, patients can discover that they can get the smile they have always dreamed of having, without having to let everyone know how they are doing it.
