Malocclusion treatment in General Escobedo

Dental malocclusion refers to poor alignment between the upper and lower teeth, so that they do not fit together properly when the mouth is closed. It can affect the bite, chewing, and even speech.

How it shows up: crowded, spaced, or misaligned teeth, difficulty biting evenly, and, at times, jaw discomfort.

Common causes: hereditary factors, childhood habits, or loss of teeth that disrupts their natural arrangement.

Which specialist treats it? The orthodontist and the dentist evaluate tooth position and the bite. If you notice that your teeth do not close properly, a consultation allows your case to be assessed in detail.
