Q. Hi….I hate my teeth. They are not HORRIBLE but I have one teeth on top that looks like a dracula tooth! And my front 2 main teeth are a LITTLE crooked. I was thinking about getting braces. I am 20. Is that the safest thing to do? I have looked into veeners and bonding – dont know much about them. I dont know how safe veeners and bonding are. So my best bet right now is braces. Or so I think? Also, I dont have dental insurance would you know what type would be the best one to get which covers braces and regular checkups – exrays, fillings, cavity??? ( one that will work in FL and NC, or NC ) ???? p.s. help =-/ Thank You!
A. Hi,
Since i practice in the UK, i am unable to guide you on what insurance policies are suitable for you.
Orthodontics is great for correcting the position of the teeth if you are happy with the shape of them.
Veneers involve the preparation of the teeth and is definately a quicker way to get the results you wish, but the risk involved depends on the position of the teeth. The teeth may need to be prepared slightly deeper then normal, which increases the risk of the nerve reacting.
I hope this helps.
