It is never late to start with correction of irregularly positioned teeth or irregular bite. Having beautiful smile is not important just for aesthetical reasons. Nicely arranged teeth and proper bite are important for chewing on the food and for clear speech. Dentures or orthodontic appliances are recommended to all patients who have problems with irregularly positioned teeth or irregular bite.
Dentures have greater effect with children than with adults. This means that patient (adult person) has to wear certain denture for longer time period until the wanted effect is achieved. Patient has irregular bite if the upper jaw is covering the lower jaw and vice versa. In both cases, patient cannot bite properly what further has negative impacts on digestive systems. Besides problems with irregular biting and chewing, these patients have problems with clear speech.
