Hii. Yes there are other options for correction of crooked teeth. But those options depends on the amount of movement we might need to achieve. Yes orthodontic treatment has to be done with a lot of care in terms of applying mild forces to move the teeth. Excessive or heavy forces can cause the tooth to either become loose, or loose its vitality. Nevertheless every orthodontist will help u understand the kind of care tat will be required from ur side to maintain ur teeth during tat period. Food restrictions can include quitting some junk and aerated drinks and hard food stuffs for a while. But always remember the results tat we achieve by taking such measures will last for a long time under proper care.
