Ceramic braces are popular among celebrities, but there are disadvantages as well as advantages.
Some celebrities and the general public who have undergone ceramic orthodontic treatment
I regret the failure of my ceramic braces..."
In some cases, this is not the case. The following are the main disadvantages of ceramic orthodontics
×x Potential to grind down teeth and pull out tooth nerves.
Ceramic orthodontics is when the direction of the teeth is significantly changed,The tooth must be ground down and the nerve of the tooth removed.
This is because the ceramic crown itself is thick, and in addition to the inevitable shaving of the tooth when the crown is placed, it is necessary to shave the tooth unevenly in order to change the orientation of the tooth with the crown.
If the tooth is not oriented, the nerve may not be removed, but if the tooth needs to be substantially corrected for a rattling, there is a lot of tooth grinding and often the tooth nerve must be extracted.
×x May increase susceptibility to tooth decay and gum disease.
Ceramic orthodontics is only in the name of orthodontics,It does not move the teeth.Ceramic orthodontics is a treatment in which a cover is placed over the teeth.
After treatment, there will be a slight step between the crown and the original natural root of the tooth.
Since dirt tends to accumulate on steps and it is difficult to brush by oneself, it is necessary to remove the dirt from the steps.There is a risk of tooth decay and periodontal disease.
×x If the gums drop, the border between the tooth and the crown will become visible.
Although the border between the cover and the teeth should not be visible when the cover is first made, the border may inevitably become visible as the years go by and the gums fall.
If this happens, it still does not look very good, and some people may have to have it remade.
×x Weakening of the teeth
Ceramic orthodontics may involve a large tooth reduction and a procedure to remove the tooth's nerve.
Once a tooth is ground down, it can never be restored to its original condition.
Also, when the nerve in a tooth is removed, the tooth no longer receives nutrients, and the tooth becomes weaker and weaker.
Teeth that have lost their nutritional supply are more likely to break, and in the worst case scenario, the roots of the tooth may crack and have to be extracted.
×x (if they are connected), if one of them goes bad, they need to be re-treated together.
Ceramic orthodontic treatment may cover several pieces at once instead of one piece at a time.
In such cases, because the tooth is covered with a series of connected crowns, if one cracks, the other connected crowns will need to be re-treated as well.
×x Need to continue maintenance at the dentist's office.
Ceramic crowns used in ceramic orthodontics are expected to last 10 to 20 years or more if maintenance such as regular checkups and cleanings are continued at the dentist's office.
However,Without maintenance at the dentist's office, it is difficult to keep the gums clean unless you are very self-disciplined, which also makes it difficult to keep ceramic crowns clean.
