What should I do if my teeth are protruding outward?

Protruding teeth is a common dental issue that may be caused by various factors such as genetics, bad habits, tooth crowding, underdeveloped jawbone, or bite problems. The following methods can be used to improve the condition:

1. Orthodontic treatment: For patients with abnormal bone structure or misaligned teeth. Orthodontic appliances such as braces are used to adjust the position of teeth, aligning them properly and correcting the outward protrusion.

2. Surgical treatment: For severe skeletal protrusion, in which teeth protrude due to overdevelopment of the lower jaw or underdevelopment of the upper jaw. Surgery involves removing part of the protruding bone, followed by fixed orthodontic correction to improve the protrusion.

3. Tongue positioning exercises: For patients who habitually press their tongue forward. Tongue training helps correct tongue posture and reduce tooth protrusion.

4. Dental alignment: For protrusion caused by misaligned teeth. Dental correction techniques are used to adjust the position and alignment of the teeth.

If symptoms are severe, prompt medical attention is recommended.
