Can cavities heal on their own?

Misalignment Correction: Crooked teeth can be difficult to clean properly, increasing the risk of decay and gum disease. Proper alignment creates spaces that are easier to brush and floss effectively.
Bite Correction: Improper bites (overbites, underbites, crossbites) can cause uneven wear on teeth, jaw pain, and even speaking difficulties. Correcting these issues prevents long-term damage to your teeth and jaw joints.
Spacing Issues: Gaps between teeth or overcrowding can impact both appearance and function. Addressing these problems creates a more harmonious dental arch.
TMJ Disorders: Proper alignment can help alleviate jaw joint pain and related headaches that stem from malocclusion.
