How do braces straighten your teeth? I know braces straighten your teeth, but how is this possible?
I mean, how can i pieces of metal in the mouth a few straighten teeth?
Please reply im curios.
Didi-
In reality, the position of the teeth before you put the unit can be defined as natural, but not normal!
When I say normal, I mean average.
However, having braces put pressure on the tooth and periodontal ligament mainly and other structures.
After removing braces, there is a natural tendency for teeth to bounce (well not quite - as flowing back can take months or years).
Therefore, it is absolutely essential to have your retainers as instructed by your orthodontist.
they move your teeth into what could be a normal position thats why it hurts like hell when they tighten.
The metal and the arc to put pressure on the teeth to move in a certain posotion.
