How do Braces Move our Teeth?
The roots of our Teeth are surrounded by bones. Now, when we wear Braces, they apply a steady and consistent pressure on our Tooth.
This pressure applied by the braces signals the cells in our blood to start removing the bone from its current position.
And start building a new one in the position that the newly applied pressure wants our Tooth to go in.
When the Tooth moves, the bone, gums and the blood vessels also move along with it to the new position.
If the pressure is continuous then our Tooth generally moves about 1 mm per month with braces on.
Whenever the pressure stops or we remove the braces the Tooth stops moving.
