Yes, braces treatment can change your face shape subtly, mainly by improving how your teeth and jaws align. These changes are usually more noticeable in the lips, jawline, and area around the cheeks.
How can braces affect facial appearance? 🦷
1. Lips
Better-positioned teeth can provide improved support behind the lips, making them appear more balanced.
2. Jawline
Correcting certain bite problems, such as an overbite or underbite, can improve the appearance of the side profile and jawline.
3. Cheeks and mouth area
Improved tooth alignment can affect how the muscles around the mouth are supported, sometimes creating a more balanced appearance.
What won't braces change?
For adults, braces primarily move teeth within the existing bone. They do not reshape the nose, eyes, cheekbones, or dramatically alter the underlying facial bones. Growing children and teenagers may experience more noticeable changes because their jaws are still developing.
At Cosmodental Clinic, Dr. Jolly Sinha can assess your bite and alignment to explain what changes orthodontic treatment may realistically create for your smile and facial profile.
