Teeth alignment
There is a problem with my teeth alignment and I know that I need braces. I would like to know what would happen if I do not get the braces treatment. The reason I am asking this is because I am in United States and they charge a lot for treatment here.

Hello
As your teeth alignment is not good then it may affect the appearance of your smile and And due to this you may face problems in cleaning teeth and in future it may cause cavity or other problems as you cannot clean teeth properly. It's better to get braces soon.

Braces treatment is sought for not only aesthetic purposes but for functional reasons as well..... cheek biting, tongue biting, improper chewing are some of the complications of improperly aligned teeth..... the current concept of clear aligners will be a good option for you..... you can get the entire set of aligners for the treatment duration of 1 to 1.5 years in one go in your single visit to India, with prior appointment with your dentist.....

The consequences of not getting your tooth aligned depends on what sort of alignment problems you currently have.. the consequences can vary from gum disease, cavities, tooth wearing, joint pain and of course the uneasthetic appearance.. but all these consequences can be prevented with approprite home oral hygiene practices and other simple preventive measures.. u dont necessarily have to experience these consequences if u understand your teeth well enough... all said and done, my suggestion is to get it done.. if not today, maybe later when u get back to india.. there are tooth alignment options which do not require frequent visit to dentist and that is tailor made for patients who stay abroad like you.. consider these coat effective options to get your tooth aligned..
Next Steps
get an appointment with your density in india when you visit.. but get an online consult via Skype first to plan wat can be done to get your tooth alignment started..
Health Tips
always get a second opinion too before you decide to get started with treatment.
