When left untreated, overly crowded teeth can cause an increased chance of gum disease and dental decay as your teeth are harder to clean and can prevent the normal function of teeth.<\/li>\n<li>Widely spaced teeth occur when you have extra space within your jaw.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Crossbites occur when the upper and lower jaws are both misaligned. This issue can cause premature wear of the teeth, gum disease and bone loss.<\/li>\n<li>Overbites occur when the upper teeth overlap significantly with the lower teeth. This issue can lead to gum problems or irritation, and\/or wear on the lower teeth and can cause painful jaw and joint problems.<\/li>\n<li>Underbites occur when the lower teeth protrude past the front teeth, usually caused by undergrowth of the upper jaw, overgrowth of the lower jaw, or both. It can also be caused by missing upper teeth. This issue can prevent the normal function of front teeth or molars which can lead to tooth wear. It can also cause painful jaw and joint problems.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Retention<\/h4>\n<p>It is important to note that teeth will naturally drift back into their original position, so we always recommend a retainer is used to keep them in position. \u00a0A retainer can be a fixed wire on the back of your teeth or removable, like a mouth guard which is worn over the teeth at night.<\/p>\n<p>Fixed braces are available to patients who have an NHS referral from their dentist, or to patients who wish to pay for treatment privately.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t want costs to prevent you having the treatment you need so we have <a href=\"https:\/\/riverdalehealthcare.com\/newbigginvilladentalpractice\/fees-finance\/\">finance options<\/a> available to spread the cost of treatment.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div><div class=\"flex_column av_one_fifth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding   avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  \" style='border-radius:0px; '><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_2'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap sidebar_right' style=' '  ><div class='container' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-3702'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div   class='av_promobox  avia-button-yes   avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '><div class='avia-promocontent'><p>\nFind out if fixed braces are for you.
