Causes of orthodontic problems
 |
"What causes orthodontic problems?"
|
| |
Most orthodontic problems are inherited,
including tooth size and jaw size, and may lead to crowding of
teeth or spacing of teeth. Overbites, underbites, extra or
missing teeth, and irregularities of the jaws, teeth, and face
also are inherited.
Other orthodontic problems can be caused from accidents,
pacifier or thumb sucking, dental disease, or the premature loss
of either the primary or permanent teeth.
|
|
|
"What habits contribute to
"bad bites? " |
| |
A number of childhood habits can lead to
orthodontic problems, such as thumb or finger sucking, sucking
on a pacifier, sucking on a lip, mouth breathing (often caused
by enlarged tonsils and adenoids), fingernail biting, and
"tongue thrust".
