In this episode, we’re diving into a fundamental concept in dentistry:
the dental arch. Have you ever wondered what makes up a dental arch and how it plays a key role in oral health?
A dental arch consists of the upper and lower jaws, housing rows of teeth that are carefully arranged for optimal function. Understanding how these arches work together can show how our teeth and jaws function as a unit for chewing, speaking, and even facial stability.
Join us as we explore the structure of the dental arches, their role in oral health, and why keeping them properly aligned is so essential. Whether you're dealing with misalignment or want to learn more about dental anatomy, this episode is for you!
In this episode, we’ll cover:
- What makes up a dental arch and how it’s structured
- The different teeth in the upper and lower arches and their roles
- Why proper alignment of the arches is crucial for chewing and speaking
- How misalignment or missing teeth can affect your oral health
- What to do if you notice problems with your dental arches
