As the braces and wires apply pressure to the teeth, it stimulates the cells in the surrounding bone. This pressure activates a process called bone remodeling. The bone cells dissolve some areas of bone tissue on the side where pressure is applied, while simultaneously growing new bone on the opposite side. This allows the teeth to move gradually into their new positions.
