Short Description
A condition where teeth overlap or twist due to lack of space in the jaw, often corrected with braces.
Long Description
Crowding occurs when there is insufficient space in the jaw for all the teeth to align properly, causing them to overlap, twist, or erupt in the wrong position. It’s one of the most common reasons people seek orthodontic treatment.
Crowded teeth can be harder to clean, increasing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. It may also affect speech, bite alignment, and self-confidence.
Orthodontic solutions include braces, clear aligners, or sometimes tooth extraction to create room. Addressing crowding improves both oral function and aesthetic appearance.
