I Would Like An Alternative Way To Straighten The Look Of My Teeth. Is There Anything Other Than Braces Which Will Do This?

Wednesday, January 22nd, 2014
Q.

Hello, I am in need of my teeth straightening and whitening.
But I would not like to have braces, because of my work.
I have gaps, crooked and uneven teeth.
I don’t know what I can do about this, I am very nervous person, and you will never see me smile. I have always wanted a smile I could be happy and feel comfortable about.
I also need an option which isn’t going to break the bank for me. Is there anything I can do? Thank you for your time.

Hello Dr Moore. I Would Like Some Expert Advice On How To Straighten My Crooked Teeth.

Thursday, January 16th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. My enquiry is about my top front 6 teeth, which are in desperate need of some form of treatment as they are all crooked and one them is still a baby tooth and I am now 17 years old! The adult tooth that is meant to replace that tooth has grown above it on my gums and I don’t know what to do and what options I can choose. My dentist has done nothing and it has been a while now, it is really affecting me and I would appreciate some expert advice. Thank you and I look forward to your reply.

I Have Crowding And Would Like To Know About The Less Visible Types Of Brace Options Available?

Wednesday, January 15th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Hughes, I have a question I’d like to ask. I have crowding of both my upper teeth and lower and I was wondering how much it would cost for clear step braces? An average price is all I need. I just got a job with a large corporation and feel that a nice smile would help me feel better about presentations and what not. If there are any other options that are less visible that the standard metal or ceramic braces I would appreciate if you told me the options. Thanks, I look forward to your reply.

My Daughter’s Teeth Are Growing In Crooked And I’m Worried That She Will Be Teased. Is There Anything You Can Do?

Wednesday, January 15th, 2014
Q.

My daughter is nearly 8 and I have noticed that her two top front teeth (they are her second teeth) are growing at strange angles and behind her two bottom teeth is another tooth growing behind. I’m really worried, at our last check up a few months ago the dentist told me not to worry but to be honest I can’t help but worry, although things can be done when she is older. I don’t want her or any of her friends to notice anything because she already suffers from being far too shy or too different. Could you suggest anything?

My Teeth Relapsed When I Caught Chicken Pox And I Couldn’t Wear My Retainer. Could I Get Braces Again?

Tuesday, January 14th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr. Hughes. I’m 15 and I had braces when I was around 13. My story is, my teeth are wonky because I didn’t wear my retainer. However my orthodontist knows I didn’t wear them because I caught chicken pox and it spread into my mouth so I couldn’t wear my retainer. I couldn’t wear them for around 4-5 week because it was to painful. Now my teeth are moving back and they hurt and feel really uncomfortable in my mouth. I was wondering if I could have braces again or even another retainer fitted to fix my problem, would I be able to get this on my NHS? Thank you.

What Would Be The Cheapest Way Of Improving My Molars? I’m Not Sure Crowns Are The Answer.

Tuesday, January 14th, 2014
Q.

Hi Marcus. I have two missing incisors and when I was young an orthodontist attempted to correct this by closing the gaps with braces. About 10 years ago my NHS dentist at the time evened off the canines with white fillings to look more like incisors. I have quite a bad under-bite and feel that as I get older I don’t have enough teeth to fill out my face. My dentist here had suggested I could improve the look of my teeth by putting crowns on the premolars which have amalgam fillings and which are slightly visible when I smile. This seems an expensive way of not making a lot of difference. Because I’ve never been able to afford cosmetic dentistry I’ve never pursued any further advice but I’d like to know if there is anything I could do and what it might cost.

I Desperately Need Braces For My Slanted Teeth, How Can I Pay For Them?

Tuesday, January 7th, 2014
Q.

Hello, I’m 18 and working and I desperately need braces due to my two front teeth have been pushed back and bent inwards, my bottom teeth have been pushed to one side and are slanted, I have a chip on one tooth and they’re all different lengths.
Will I have to pay for them braces? If yes, how much will they cost me? And will I have to pay every year or have a payment scheme? If I will be able to get braces how can I set up an appointment for this or will I go on a waiting list?

I Am Confused Whether To Have Invisalign Or Six Month Smiles Treatment To Sort Out My Overcrowded Teeth?

Monday, January 6th, 2014
Q.

I would like to push back my upper front teeth and to straighten them too so there’s no overcrowding. I would also like to straighten my lower teeth which are crowded and one tooth protrudes outwards significantly. I have seen an orthodontist and cosmetic dentist but I’m totally confused whether to go with an orthodontist or a cosmetic dentist. One recommended Invisalign the other Six month smiles. One also said they couldn’t push my lower tooth back in line totally due to lack of space. Is there anything that can be done to create more space for a perfect outcome? Thank you.

I’m Scared I’ll Lose Two Teeth As I Have An Overbite. Would I Be Suitable For Damon Braces?

Monday, January 6th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark. I would like some information from you. I’ve had fixed braces for about two years now but my orthodontist says I need two upper teeth taken out and I am incredibly scared of dentists. I heard about the Damon system but my parents are having none of it but I am NOT having those teeth out I was wondering what the price would be? I have an overbite according to one orthodontist but my jaw’s too far back according to another. I just want to know if I could be right for them. Thank you for taking the time to address my concerns.
