Dental crowding

Dental crowding and overlapping teeth: prices and treatments

Dental crowding, which occurs when teeth overlap or are misaligned, is a common problem in both children and adults. It can develop for several reasons, ranging from genetic factors to lifestyle

Dental crowding

Dental crowding: What is it?

Dental crowding occurs when there is not enough space in the jaw for the teeth to sit in their correct positions, causing them to overlap. Cases of crowding can be classified by severity:

Mild

A few slightly displaced teeth, with little impact on oral hygiene.

Moderate

Several overlapping teeth, making oral hygiene more difficult.

Severe

Significant overlapping that may lead to pain and bite problems.

What causes dental crowding?

Dental crowding can have several causes, including:

Hereditary causes of dental crowding
Hereditary causes of dental crowding

The size of the teeth and jaw is often determined by genetics. Insufficient space in the jaw can cause the teeth to overlap.

Transition from primary to permanent teeth

During this period, permanent teeth may emerge in unsuitable positions or where there is insufficient space.

Jaw growth and tooth alignment

If the jaw does not develop properly, it can prevent the teeth from aligning correctly.

Oral habits in children

Behaviours such as thumb-sucking or biting hard objects can affect the position of children's teeth.
