Dental stripping<\/strong>, also known as interdental reduction<\/strong> or interproximal wear<\/strong>, is a dental procedure<\/strong> that involves millimetric wear of tooth enamel to create space between<\/strong> them.<\/p>\n This treatment is usually done as part of the orthodontic plan<\/strong> to correct crowding<\/strong> problems<\/strong> and improve tooth alignment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n From our dental clinic in Malaga and Torremolinos<\/strong><\/a>, in this article, we will explore when dental stripping is used and the benefits that this procedure offers.<\/p>\n Read on and don\u2019t miss any details!<\/p>\n Dental stripping is considered a safe and effective procedure for certain cases of dental malocclusions and crowding.<\/p>\n In this regard, orthodontists<\/strong> may recommend stripping in the following situations:<\/p>\n Crowding<\/strong> occurs when there is a lack of jaw space to accommodate all teeth properly.<\/p>\n For this reason, in these cases, the orthodontist may recommend dental stripping to create the necessary space and achieve proper alignment of the teeth.<\/p>\n Diastema<\/strong> are excessive spaces between the teeth, especially in the anterior area.<\/p>\n Dental stripping can be used to reduce the size of these spaces and improve the aesthetics<\/strong> of the smile.<\/p>\n Some people may have asymmetries<\/strong> in the size of their teeth, which affects the overall appearance of the smile.<\/p>\n The dental procedure can be used to slightly level the teeth and improve the harmony of it.<\/p>\n In certain cases, the orthodontist may choose to perform dental stripping before starting orthodontic treatment<\/strong>, such as using brackets<\/strong><\/a> or transparent aligners.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n The goal is to create the necessary space for the correct alignment of the teeth during treatment.<\/p>\n Interdental wear offers several benefits<\/strong> for those patients who need it as part of their dental or orthodontic treatment.<\/p>\n Here are some of the most relevant:<\/p>\n One of the main ones is the correction of dental crowding. By millimeter-worn tooth enamel, space is created to allow teeth to properly align in the dental arch.<\/p>\n In many cases, dental stripping can avoid the need for dental extractions<\/strong> to fix crowding. This is especially advantageous for those patients who wish to maintain their natural teething and avoid tooth loss<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Significantly improves the aesthetic appearance of the smile and facial harmony.<\/p>\n Dental stripping is a conservative<\/strong> and minimally invasive procedure<\/strong>. Only a small amount of enamel is removed in specific areas between the teeth, preserving as much of the original tooth structure as possible.<\/p>\n By correcting crowding and improving dental alignment<\/strong>, interdental reduction contributes to a more balanced distribution of mastication pressure, which can reduce tension in certain teeth and jaw in general.<\/p>\n When dental stripping is performed correctly, results tend to be stable<\/strong> over time<\/strong>. This means that the benefits of proper alignment and improved smile are maintained over the long term. Thanks to this treatment, you can wear a smile aligned and perfect.<\/p>\n At our dental clinic in Malaga and Torremolinos, we understand the importance of every decision we make in your dental treatment.<\/p>\nIn what cases is dental stripping used?<\/h2>\n
