Dental Overcrowding Correction Services

Overcrowding Solutions for Your Teeth

Dental crowding is a common problem. It happens when the jaw doesn't have enough space for the number of teeth present. In the past, dentists and orthodontists used to rely on painful tooth extractions to correct this problem. We do things differently at Hohl Orthodontics.

We believe it's vital to address overcrowding. It's the only way to promote long-term health. However, instead of removing teeth, we correct the issue by expanding the jaw. While extraction can fix overcrowding faster, it's a much more painful and traumatizing experience, especially for younger patients.

By methodically expanding the jaw through orthodontia, we can give your teeth the space they need without as much pain or recovery time. We'll assess your mouth to understand the best path forward.

Why Is Extraction a Bad Choice?

If extraction gets the job done faster, why don't we still do it? With good pain relief, the process can be less traumatic. However, there are other problems to consider.

Think about the way our jaws work. Due to our modern diets and behaviors, most people naturally have a narrow upper jaw. However, the teeth provide a foundation for a stable cranial system. When teeth are removed from this system without fixing the jaw, it can impact the entire body in negative ways.

• Frequent headaches or migraines
• Pain in the neck, jaw, and teeth
• Sleep apnea and other breathing conditions

These problems are just the start. That's why the faster way isn't always the better way. Let us come up with a plan to expand your jaw and fix your overcrowding problem more holistically.
