At first, it may seem like a small inconvenience, but you’ll adjust and chew differently, or speak in a way that covers the fact that you no longer have a tooth in that spot, but over time, that missing tooth will begin to affect the surrounding infrastructure.

Tooth sensitivity is one of those dental issues that tends to sneak into everyday life. It might show up as a quick twinge when you sip something cold or a sharp sensation when you bite into something sweet.

Orthodontics focuses on aligning teeth and correcting bite issues with non-surgical methods such as braces or clear aligners.

While orthodontics guides tooth movement, surgery corrects structural problems that cannot be improved through braces alone.
