Why Bite Correction Matters More Than Straight Front Teeth
Bite correction matters more than straight front teeth because a healthy smile is not only about what you see in the mirror.
Many patients and parents first notice crowding, gaps, or crooked front teeth. That makes sense. The front teeth are the most visible part of the smile, especially in photos, conversations, and everyday life.
But during an orthodontic consultation, Dr. Redmond and the team at Bill Redmond Orthodontics also look at how the upper and lower teeth fit together.
That bite relationship can affect comfort, function, treatment planning, and how stable the final result may be after braces or Invisalign.
Straight front teeth are important. They just do not tell the whole story.
