The cosmetic dentist in Dubai says there are health reasons for getting the right bite too. With misaligned teeth, there is a greater risk of plaque build-up, food build-up between teeth, which is a dripping effect because the more food build-up there is, the more plaque; hence more concerned about periodontitis and gum disease. A bad bite also means you can’t chew your food properly, which can lead to gastrointestinal problems.
