The Miracle of Moving Teeth

Your gums are amazing. Your teeth are connected to your upper and lower jawbones by the periodontal ligament and cementum material which allows your mouth to withstand the forces placed on your teeth by chewing and other regular activities.  This unique structure allows your teeth to naturally shift throughout your life.  Orthodontic treatment uses this natural capacity for change by deliberately altering your teeth and bite position.
