What are crowded teeth?

Do I have it? I have 29 teeth. 14 on the bottom. I've always felt I didn't have enough.


I have one tooth on the top front side that is higher(vampire position), but there's no tooth under it.

What are crowded teeth?
Crowded teeth are when they are pushed in together too closely. Each tooth needs room to grow in straight. If you ever see someone with crooked teeth, a lot of times it isn't due to lack of hygiene but the fact their teeth were never allowed to grow in straight due to lack of space. The cost to repair that is very costly. (I have a friend who is a dental hygenist)
Reply:Crowded teeth just means your mouth is smaller than the amount of teeth you have in it. Or you have more than one set of teeth at the same time.
Reply:Crowded or crooked teeth that overlap, protrude, or recess in a haphazard fashion can often be perceived as a personal disfigurement. If you feel embarassed to smile, then you should consider having your teeth straightened out.





Apart from looking aesthetically unpleasing, crowded teeth also affect the general dental condition of your mouth. They tend to attract food deposits, which get trapped in the narrow spaces, and are difficult to keep clean with routine oral hygiene. This leads to higher incidence of tooth decay and gum disease.





Till some years ago, orthodontic treatment was the only solution to crowded teeth. But now we have an alternative in cosmetic dentistry. We may add that orthodontics is still widely used in the younger population, while cosmetic procedures are more useful in professionals who may not have the time necessary to carry out the orthodontic procedures. Cosmetic dentistry is also useful in the older generation, who may not have an ideal gum or bone condition necessary to withstand the orthodontic forces.





The objective of any corrective therapy is to create an illusion of well-aligned teeth in relation to lip position when you smile. Such an illusion can sometimes be achieved by means of cosmetic contouring, the technical term used to reshape teeth. In more involved cases, it may be necessary to use bonding to build-out a portion of a tooth to create the impression of alignment. As the cases get more complex, we may need to veneer or crown the teeth to achieve the necessary objective.
