Face before and after braces

“The tooth and the hair are the human angle”. Since ancient times, our folk have considered teeth and hair as one of the standards to evaluate human beauty. The simple reason is that teeth and hair are the first impressions when interacting with the opposite person.
Accordingly, people with even, beautiful, white teeth contribute to a fresh, radiant face and create confidence in communicating, smiling or talking.
In contrast, people with uneven, crooked teeth directly affect the face, causing the face to be unbalanced, especially the lower half of the face:
Jawbone and wide tooth mold in the anatomical structure of the bone or people with protruding teeth, big teeth... will make the mouth wide, big, rough and reduce the harmony of the face; Protruding teeth, underbites, misaligned growth, misaligned bite ... are the factors that make the face unbalanced, look rough and somewhat angular. For the above reasons, the method of cosmetic braces is sought by many people with the desire to create a change in the face before and after braces in a more positive, balanced and beautiful direction.

Before and after braces, positive changes to the face can include:
For people with misaligned teeth that interfere with the bite, making the face look tight, misaligned or disordered such as The neck is slightly forward, the shoulders are tilted... Then the change before and after braces both jaws will bring the face into the correct relationship, relax the facial muscles because the obstructions are released, thereby the face will be more relaxed, light and balanced; For people with signs of facial deviation due to the lower jaw bone lying in the wrong position, the face before and after braces will be balanced again; The angle of the nose is one of the changes before and after braces: For example, people with protrusion, after braces, the upper lip will retract, so the nose looks taller and slimmer. However, people with a high nose are actually due to the growth of cartilage, the thickness of the nose wings and are completely unrelated to the dental or jawbone pattern. Therefore, braces only have the effect of making teeth more beautiful, the face becomes harmonious and unintentionally giving us the feeling that the nose is higher; Changes before and after braces in the chin area: Cases of lifting joints, pulling the lower jaw back or spreading the lower teeth can make the chin slimmer, sometimes looking longer and creating Vline shape; The most noticeable changes before and after braces are regular, healthy teeth that are easier to clean. At the same time, the gum tissue is also firm, ruddy, with little or no inflammation as before. Thereby creating a healthy, attractive smile, improving self-confidence and resulting in a fuller and more eye-catching face before braces; Face changes before and after braces can be located in the lips. For example, for people with protrusion, the upper teeth are brought forward, causing the lips to be crooked, the position of the lips in the canine area is also bulging, causing the lips to lack contour. When wearing braces, pulling the upper and lower jaw back helps prevent the lips from turning up. At the same time, the position of the lips in the 2nd and 3rd tooth areas is slightly curved to help the lips become plump, slightly converge in the middle and create a contour.

Before treatment, the patient's face will have a protruding lower jaw, a concave upper jaw, even in some cases the pronunciation is broken. After braces, the upper jaw will be brought out, the lower jaw will go back in, making the face change significantly, the nose will look higher, the lower jaw will be slimmer, the angle of the nose and lips is not blunt but becomes more pointed.

Protrusion is a phenomenon where the upper teeth protrude too much, causing the chin to look backward, difficult to close the mouth, the chin is often wrinkled, creating a feeling of tension and discomfort in the face, and at the same time, the cheeks are often sunken, making the cheekbones feel. get high.
After braces, the face of the person with braces will change a lot, besides regular teeth, the person with braces will have a more beautiful face when the mouth can close naturally, the chin is longer, the nose seems higher , cheeks will be plump without being tight, but need to be fat to conceal high cheekbones if any because the nature of orthodontics does not change the position of cheekbones.

An open bite will make the face long, especially the lower face is not balanced with the upper face layers, the upper lip is flared, the smile line is often horizontal, making the smile look quite innocent.
The face before and after braces will be aligned with the most aesthetic standards besides naturally closing the gap between the teeth.

Teeth that are misaligned, severely crooked teeth when smiling will create the feeling that the patient's mouth has too many teeth, Then the braces will help shrink the jaw by the process of pulling the deviated teeth into the row, thereby looking at the braces person's mouth no longer. wide, pulling back the jaw also makes the angle of the nose and lips look more harmonious.

Aesthetic braces with orthodontic appliances act on the teeth with a constant light force, helping to move the teeth to the desired position, thereby affecting the complex of roots, alveolar bone, and mold. The face changes more positively, in some cases there is even a "divine angle" because the lips will no longer protrude or underbite, the nose will look taller and slimmer.
Many patients after braces have become more confident about their tilt angle, the big change after braces partly shows the positive results of orthodontic methods.

Children and adolescents (age under 16) are very suitable for braces because the best results can be achieved. At this age, braces are easier to do, the movements of bending and adjusting teeth, gums, jawbone are also more convenient... Accordingly, the change of face before and after braces is often go in a positive direction, more beautiful and balanced.
Parents should pay attention to the regular dental check-up schedule for their children to receive the doctor's timely examination, advice and treatment methods. From there, it helps to prevent the risk of misaligned teeth, protruding teeth, underbites, loss of aesthetics ..., helping children own a beautiful smile, balanced face and confidence in life.

The majority of adults tend to wear braces with the main purpose of improving the aesthetic level or correcting existing defects on the teeth...
However, the tooth structure and jawbone of adults have already changed. Fully developed, quite hard and sturdy. That leads to a longer braces time, more complexity, and the change before and after braces is usually not much.

Changes before and after braces in a negative trend may include:
During braces, we often have to wear bulky braces. So eating will be affected, which can lead to weight loss, sunken cheeks, sunken temples and of course these are not positive. However, these changes are only temporary, after completing the braces, eating habits will return to normal, the above changes will disappear and worries about appearance will pass; Braces are considered a medical treatment, so besides the benefits, there are complications if done incorrectly. Many cases of orthodontics, braces not only do not beautify but even damage the face before and after braces; After braces, the midline can be deviated and the smile will be distorted; Braces cause the face to grow in the vertical direction too much, causing imbalance; In cases where braces cannot change the disproportionation due to too large bone correlation such as the degree of overbite or underbite, the degree of open bite is too much... you can choose surgical cutting method to make the face look beautiful. more after treatment; The change of face before and after braces is relatively significant, but this depends on the condition of our teeth and our requirements with the dentist. At the same time, now to increase the aesthetic effect, besides braces, we can combine with a little plastic surgery to make the already beautiful appearance even more beautiful.
