One of the most visible dental problems is protruding teeth, which frequently afflict individuals with an overbite or an inclined tooth line. The good news is that, depending on what caused the protrusion in the first place, protruding teeth may frequently be repaired rather quickly.

Although it can affect some adults, protruding front teeth are a typical issue in children. There is no need for treatment for what are often known as “buck teeth” unless they are endangering your dental health. The dental protrusion can also cause teeth crowding as well, which can press the teeth closer together and make them protrude.

What Causes Protrusion?

Teeth can sometimes protrude outward due to genetics. Protrusions can occasionally be brought on by skeletal anomalies or mouth injuries that damage the maxilla, and the jawbone. Crowding can occasionally be brought on, which can press the teeth closer together and make them protrude.

Habits like using too much pacifier or sucking fingers are considerably more common and can result in protruding teeth. Additionally, if the lower jaw is too tiny, the upper teeth may appear to be protruding because of this.

Protrusion Treatment Options at The Smile Station

At The Smile Station, dental protrusion is often addressed with orthodontic procedures. These comprise conventional braces that are permanently attached to the teeth, followed by detachable retainers.

Children frequently wear braces, but adults can want a less noticeable procedure such as clear aligners. In order to progressively straighten and move the teeth into their optimal position, the procedure entails wearing a set of transparent aligners that fit over the teeth (similar to a mouthguard but thinner). Usually, this course of treatment lasts from 12 to 18 months.
