Frequently Asked Questions
What are the common causes of dentofacial anomalies and malocclusion?

Dentofacial anomalies and malocclusion can be caused by genetic factors, developmental issues, or habits such as thumb sucking. Other contributing factors include trauma, tumors, or diseases affecting jaw development.

How are disorders of the jaw diagnosed and treated?

Disorders of the jaw are diagnosed through clinical examination and imaging techniques like X-rays or CT scans. Treatment options vary from orthodontic interventions to surgical procedures, depending on the severity of the condition.

What are the potential complications of untreated malocclusion?

Untreated malocclusion can lead to complications such as difficulty in chewing, speech problems, increased risk of tooth decay and gum disease, and temporomandibular joint disorders. Early intervention is crucial for preventing these issues.
