But the question is, will doing this again and again make your smile better or improve your dental health? No, it will not magically resolve it. Although not every dental challenge needs orthodontic intervention, there are signs that should not be ignored. 8 Signs You May Need Orthodontic Treatment Crowding or Overlapping Teeth Overbite, Underbite or Crossbite Chronic Open Mouth Posture Difficulty Chewing, Biting, or Speaking Gaps or Spacing Between Teeth Frequent Cheek and Tongue Biting Retained Baby Teeth Protruding Front Teeth A Quick Self-check Difficulty flossing to clean teeth Thumb sucking or tongue thrust habits Visible overcrowded teeth and overlapping teeth Visible gaps or spacing between teeth Upper teeth bite behind the lower teeth, and this is a clear sign of crossbite.
