 When you have tilted teeth in the mouth, molars in this situation, then you would likely need to have something called a molar uprighting done. These are usually the second molars in the mouth, and they are found behind the back of the molar in front of it. This is what pushes the molar down on one side, as the other side continues to pop back up. It can also mean that the tooth was trying to drift into this empty space in the mouth. What is Uprighting?Uprighting is when the tilted molar is then put right back up without having to take the tooth, or any of the other teeth out of the mouth to fix the issue. This procedure has been shown to provide positive results and a reliable procedure for our office to perform on those that are dealing with molar uprighting. When your tooth is drifting into the empty space, then you need to make sure that you have this taken care of sooner, rather than later. Uprighting is a procedure that we can speak with you about if we determine this is something that you are in need of. It is important that you get the care that is needed and the dental cleaning that is required to remove any build up that might be causing the back tooth that is stuck to have decay on the outside of it. Speaking with our office is a good thing for you to do if you feel that this is something that you need. Call us today to set up a time to come in and have our dentists take a look. We want to make sure that everyone gets the quality care that you need. Call today to find out what we can do regarding the molar uprighting that you may need. |
