Core Tip

Core Tip: If dental defects are not repaired in a timely manner, adjacent teeth may tilt and shift. This causes elongation of the occlusal teeth, results in a lack of sufficient repair space, and leads to certain difficulties in the restoration of dentures. The combination of dental implant restoration and orthodontic treatment for tilted adjacent teeth has significant therapeutic effects, can reduce alveolar bone density, promote patient functional recovery, and is safe.
