Although most people will often wait until they get told to go to the orthodontist by their regular dentist, children and adults can benefit from regular care to make their smiles as amazing as possible. Some of the situations where you would need orthodontic care may include:

# Teeth crowding: Crowded teeth are not able to fit well on the dental ridge. This can happen when poor facial development is there before the age of 5.

# Crooked teeth: This is when the teeth are twisted or tilted.

# Overbite: When the upper teeth go too far forward and they start to stick out above the lower teeth, then this is known as an overbite. It can cause some problems with the jaw and chewing.

# Underbite: This is when the lower teeth jut out past the upper one and can cause more of a bulldog look.

Spacing: For smaller kids, the gaps between teeth are a good sign, but if there are large spaces, then this can become a problem, especially if you are an adult with this issue.

# Impacted teeth: This is when the teeth are not going to come out enough from the jawbone. It can cause some issues with biting and even some pain.

# Gum disease, bad breath, and cavities: Because crooked or misaligned teeth can make it harder to floss or brush the teeth, this can lead to some oral health problems, even if you brush and try to take good care of your teeth.

# Poor aesthetics: This can make your teeth not look as good as they did in the past. You will want to work with an orthodontist to make sure that you fix the teeth and make them look better, which can build up confidence and will make you feel better as well.

# Mouth breathing: It is possible that you are breathing through your mouth due to a misaligned bite or the airway is smaller than average. This can lead to a number of symptoms that you will need to work on with the help of your orthodontist.
