· The health of the bone and gums which support the teeth may be impaired or aggravated.
· The bite may change throughout the course of treatment and may result in temporary patient discomfort
· Tooth decay, periodontal disease, and permanent markings from stains and decalcification may occur if patients do not brush and floss their teeth properly during orthodontic treatment.
· The length of the roots of the teeth may become shortened during any orthodontic treatment, which may become a threat to the longevity of the teeth.
· During the tooth movement, some unhealthy tooth may suffer from developing non-vitality of the pulp inside the tooth and this will require Root Canal Therapy ( + subsequent crowning later) at an extra cost.
· In rare instances, problems in the temporo-mandibular joint (jaw joint) may result in joint pain, headaches or ear problems.
