Crowding Braces Before and After

Dental crowding is a type of malocclusion – or “bad bite” – that occurs as a result of this problem. Rather than grow into their correct positions, when the teeth do not have enough room, they will grow in unnatural positions, trying to find a space to grow in competition with other teeth.
