Why Is It So Important to Have Straight Teeth? - Southcenter Dental

Some people wonder why we work so hard to restore our patients' teeth with CEREC and other technologies. Of course it’s nice to have a smile full of evenly aligned teeth, but straight and even teeth also lead to better oral hygiene, increasing your chances of keeping your own natural teeth for a lifetime.

Straight teeth are less prone to decay, because they collect less plaque – the sticky colorless substance that forms on our teeth and leads to tooth decay; and they are easier to keep clean!

If you’re wondering whether your teeth might cause problems because they are chipped or out of alignment, give us a call at 206.973.8211 to set up a consultation. Dr. Baruffi can help you decide whether or not you will benefit from treatment.
