6. Complications of Treatment
Sometimes, treating malocclusion can lead to complications. Tooth decay is common, especially if the person does not take care of their teeth and follow the orthodontist's instructions while wearing dental braces. Orthodontic treatment can also cause pain or discomfort during the realignment. The devices used can lead to cuts or irritation to the inside of the mouth, causing difficulty or discomfort when eating, drinking, or speaking.
