Braces Explained: How Teeth Move / Orthodontic Tooth Movement:
(Special shout-out to Luka Andjelov for the video idea!)
In this video, I will be answer the question of how braces, invisalign, spacers, etc are able to move your teeth! As orthodontist, we specialize in idealizing your smile and to do that we have to be able to control where the teeth move and how they fit together.
Contrary to what you may think, teeth are not fused to your bone, and a bit of movement is normal. This is due to the fact that teeth are suspeneded in your bone by millions of fibers called periodontal ligaments, or PDL, for short. When the PDL is compressed by force, the bone on that side will resorb, or eat away, and on the opposite side, where the PDL is stretched, new bone will be formed. This is what makes teeth move through bone. In this video, I will show two cases of how teeth can be moved by applying a slight pressure & tension to the PDL and activate bone cells to allow tooth movement.
As always, if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me via the comments below!
See you next time!

I've already commented this but in case it gets lost in the hundreds of comments, I'm saying it again lol: How far can teeth be moved? Can they be moved anywhere in the mouth? My upper row is not aligned and balanced. The right half of the upper row is too low and the left half too high. It's hard to explain without a picture but let's just say that when I bite into a straight stick, it isn't level. It isn't aligned to the rest of my face and this is because of the teeth being in the wrong place. The entire upper row needs to be shifted to the right and slightly up on the right side. So my question is, would that be possible if the teeth need to be moved a considerable amount before they are in their right place?

Teeth can be moved very long distances but it may take a long time and result in root resorption. I would suggest you see an orthodontist regarding this concern. It can be fixed but if it is too severe sometimes jaw surgery may be necessary

Dionna ly YES! I had spacers and rubber bands. The rubber bands would pull my mouth shut to the teeth that already had tons of pressure from spacers, It was the worst pain and I remember crying from it the first week. Mouth pain is the worst, I handled contractions better than pain from braces.

@@DrGregAsatrian sir, I wanna ask a question I have a really bad overbite, I mean my front two teeth are a way too forward and it causes me a bad overbite ..the thing is, after my overbite gets straightened wouldn't the space inside my mouth get less? I have heard that if the tongue doesn't get enough space to rest in then it will cause me breathing problems? Is that so? My front two teeth and also the lower two/three teeth are sticking out badly, I am not scared about getting braces or even having some extractions done..I am getting stressed because of the less space it will create afterwards..I can't really close my mouth because of my teeth and it's embarrassing!

And the (?) is ; There is a " perfect " position where the tooth is supposed to be? like if there is a guideline that orthodontist follow with the skull? Because i see some results from different orthodontist and it seems that there still more work to be done. Some cases i see straight teeth but face recession. Sometimes overbite, i feel like 'the after' result still have an overbite. Hope u can help me with the confusion and btw i learned a lot with ur videos, thank u for the time teaching, they are really helpful.

Hi! First i wanted to thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to make this video and it was a great one at that. (+I sure liked the animations). I am happy to hear you clinic is busy it means you guys are doing a great job. This video was something that your channel need. As luck would have it i was doing some research on my own on some orthopedic stuff and i found an article explaining this (but with your video is much better). Thanks again for the video and i am look forward to your future content when your find the time.

I’ve heard that you shouldn’t take advil/tylenol before you get your braces on/ tightened because even if it will keep pain at bay, it stops your teeth from moving or something.. is this true? what pain killers do you recomend?
@DrGregAsatrian
@DrGregAsatrian 5 жыл бұрын
Advil actually has a MINOR effect of slowing down tooth movement at first. I usually recommend Tylenol because it causes relief and doesn't have an impact on tooth movement. Great question!

If a tooth is basically in the right spot, but needs to be rotated, how does that happen? As opposed to the tooth moving “through” the bone to relocate. I am 44 and about to have braces for the first time, I’m excited and terrified. 😂

I've had top braces on for 5 months now. Some very brief relief to me is to drink cold water and have it run over the teeth that are hurting over and over again. I find it very soothing. If it's especially unbearable and hurting constantly even when you aren't putting pressure on any teeth, ibuprofen should bring the pain down.

one tooth hurts because it’s moving form, (it’s place) , my teeth also ended up looking worse than i started , but in the last 3 years i learned that they get worse for structure , so ur comment was 3 months ago, meaning most likely the fact that it looked even worse had something to do with straightening your teeth .
