Teeth have there own holes in our jaw that keep them in place, so how the fuck do teeth move when you wear braces or invisiline? Do the holes move with the teeth? Our jaws are bone, how does it allow the teeth to move without creating a bigger hole or just making the teeth sideways? Im really confused.

As best as my orthodontist explained it to me when I was like 10…. the teeth are connected to the jaw bone they sit in by lots of actually very tiny “wires”. Braces use continued application of force to break those wires. When the wires break, your body makes new ones to properly anchor the teeth. But again… this was my understanding of something when I was 10. So… may be wrong.
