Crooked teeth negatively affect the lives of hundreds of thousands, even millions of children, adolescents and adults all over the world. There are many factors that cause crooked teeth. We have listed the 8 most common causes and treatment processes for you in our content.
Crooked permanent teeth in children are not always a cause for concern. Many people do not have perfectly straight teeth and do not experience serious dental problems later in life.
Parents should always consult their dentist when children have new permanently crooked teeth. If they think that the crooked tooth can resolve on its own, your dentist will suggest waiting. Otherwise, they may refer the child to an orthodontist for consultation processes.
There may be factors that cause us to have crooked teeth at different stages of our lives. Here are the 8 most common causes of crooked teeth:
1. Genetic factor / factors; it can play a big role in having crooked teeth or jaws. If your parents have crooked teeth, there is a high probability that you will inherit them genetically.
2. Missing teeth factor; early loss of baby teeth and then permanent adult teeth can affect the position of your remaining teeth, resulting in crooked teeth.
3. Thumb sucking; habits such as thumb or finger sucking put constant pressure on the teeth and jaws, forcing them to change to a different position. For this reason, the treatment of crooked teeth is usually orthodontics.
4. Ageing factor; the time factor can also damage the standing position of the teeth. As we age, our teeth may become crooked forward. Your jawbone, which has lost its density over the years, encourages teeth to become crooked.
