Ever wondered how orthodontic appliances work? Teeth move in response to pressure over time. Braces, for example, apply constant gentle pressure on teeth to guide them into their ideal positions. But remember – not all pressure is good pressure! Thumb-sucking or swallowing in abnormal ways can create damaging pressure that pushes teeth out of place and can distort the bone.
