Is there a way that I can have smile widened?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, I am currently almost finished having orthodontic treatment, my teeth are straight but I would like a wider smile.. showing more teeth.. the roof of my mouth is narrow..is it possible to still achieve this? My braces are supposed to be coming off in a month. Also.. as your a jaw expert, my jaw is really really clicky and doesnt seem to track up and down properly, also I have a habit of clicking it in and out on one side, if I dont it feels really tight, is this bad? Im worried about getting arthritis. I have had this since I was a child.. Im now 26. Thanks ever so much for your time.,

What treatment is suitable for canines that are forward of other teeth?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
My bottom row of teeth is almost perfectly straight, but on the the top row the canines (I think) are further forward than my other teeth. Also, due to an accident when I was 11 (I am now 23) two of my teeth are chipped and one of the front ones has the bottom section missing and is capped. As such, I don’t know if it would be worth having my teeth straightened if you could still see the caps, or what my other options would be? Please advise? Much appreciated.,

Can I get treatment for tooth gaps on the NHS?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hello I have spacious gaps between my upper teeth and also quite a big overbite. According to an orthodonist I recently saw, he said invisalign may work for me, but I am border-line surgical in terms of my overbite. This is worrying to me as it seems it may not just be a cosmetic problem anymore, is there any way I can get this done on the NHS? If not, what options do I have?,

What treatment can I have to replace old looking bridge?

Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Q.
Hello Dr Glaister, I have had the same bridge on my bottom front teeth for about 15 years (It’s a Maryland bridge). When I had it done it was the best thing ever and improved my confidence but now it’s really looking dated and too obvious. What I was wondering is, do you have to change a bridge after a few years? Also I would like to have this bridge removed and placed with some thing more up to date because I know cosmetic dentistry has come a long way in the last 15 years! Would dental implants be best? What would you suggest? This has bothered me for many years but I have done nothing about it but this summer I have my sisters wedding coming up and would really like to do something finally.,
