Spacing

Dental spacing refers to the gap between teeth, and can be seen between normal teeth or microdontia. Food will get stuck between teeth, damaging periodontal tissues and causing gingivitis, periodontitis and dental caries. Widely-spaced teeth can affect the appearance of patient, causing mental disorders.

          Crowding

          Crowding is common and can be seen in 60%-70% of patients with malocclusion. It is manifested as bunching up, overlapping and twisting. Patients with crowded teeth face a higher risk of dental caries and periodontal diseases than those with normal teeth arrangements.
