Mouth breathing and crooked teeth

"There is plenty of evidence in the literature that mouth-breathing has an adverse effect on the growth and development of the face and jaws. All children who are habitual mouth-breathers will have a malocclusion."

(A malocclusion is a misalignment of teeth and/or incorrect relation between the teeth of the two dental arches)
Dr John Flutter

More recently a number of pioneering dentists and orthodontists are realizing the importance of nasal breathing. Mouth breathing resulting in the development of a narrow upper arch, causes overcrowding of teeth leading to misalignment. The traditional approach is to extract the overcrowded teeth leaving room for the remaining. However, this does not address the cause of overcrowding. It is therefore aesthetically poorer, and relapses are common.
