<p>
Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain, and may contribute to conditions that cause tooth decay, as well as gum disease and tooth loss. Orthodontic problems can contribute to abnormal wear of tooth surfaces, inefficient chewing, and excessive stress on gum tissue and the bone that supports the teeth, or misalignment of the jaw joints, which can result in chronic headaches or pain in the face or neck. When left untreated, many orthodontic problems become worse. Treatment to correct the original problem is often less costly than the additional dental care required to treat more serious problems that can develop in later years.

The value of an attractive smile should not be underestimated. Treatment may reduce appearance-consciousness, during the critical developmental years. Appearance can have an effect on popularity, social behavior, self-expectations, personality style, self-confidence and self-image. For children, orthodontic therapy may lessen the likelihood that he/she will be teased or picked on by other children.
