Teeth are wired primarily for orthodontic purposes, such as to correct alignment and improve bite. This process, often part of braces, helps guide teeth into their proper positions over time, enhancing both function and aesthetics. Additionally, wiring can stabilize teeth after surgical procedures or during healing, ensuring they remain in place.

How do braces straighten teeth?
Braces straighten teeth by exerting continuous, light pressure over time that gradually moves them to the position desired. The brackets, glued onto each tooth, are attached by a wire that is adjusted every so often by an orthodontist. This wire puts pressure on the teeth and the bone around them, causing the bone to reform and permit the teeth to move. As the bone is broken down and renewed due to this pressure, the teeth slowly move into alignment. Want more details ? Visit fmsdental

What appliance is responsible for tooth movement?
For tooth movement, your dentist can recommend you to an orthodontist. There, depending on your teeth, he will decide if you need treatment. If you do, he usually will give you braces, but he may also use retainers, permanant retainers, or invisible braces. Each part of the braces has some part in moving the teeth. The wire guides your teeth, and the brackets attach your teeth to the wire. If you get rubber bands, they help to move your jaws closer together. The orthodontist may also use stoppers, or little balls of glue, to keep your wire from sliding around much. He also uses elastics, which looks like a chain of many tiny rubber bands attached together, which he would put around each of your brackets to keep your teeth from spacing out.
