The exact cause and reason why MÃ©niÃ¨reâs disease starts is not yet known. Many theories have been proposed over the years. They include: circulation problems, viral infection, allergies, an autoimmune reaction, migraine, and the possibility of a genetic connection.
Using braces, retainers, and other devices, an orthodontist helps straighten a person's teeth and correct the way the jaws line up. Straight teeth and aligned jaws create nice smiles and help keep your teeth healthy. On top of that, when your jaws and teeth are well aligned, it's easier to chew food.
Braces are installed and supervised by an orthodontist, a dentist who specializes in moving teeth. They are typically in place for 1-3 years, and during that time the patient will visit the orthodontist about once a month for adjustments.
