Pincer movement

« Back to Glossary Index

Pincer movement is a term used in dentistry to describe a condition where the upper and lower teeth do not align properly, causing the front teeth to overlap. This can lead to a number of dental problems, including tooth wear, gum recession, and even jaw pain. Pincer movement is often caused by a combination of factors, including genetics, habits such as thumb-sucking or tongue-thrusting, and certain medical conditions.

As a local family dentist, we understand the importance of addressing pincer movement early on to prevent further dental issues. Our team of experienced dentists will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and jaw to determine the best course of treatment. Depending on the severity of the condition, treatment options may include orthodontic treatment, such as braces or clear aligners, or in some cases, surgery.

At Miller Comfort Dental, we are committed to providing our patients with the highest quality dental care in a comfortable and welcoming environment. Our team of skilled dentists and friendly staff are dedicated to helping you achieve optimal oral health and a beautiful smile. If you are experiencing pincer movement or any other dental issue, we encourage you to contact us today to schedule an appointment.
