I have a dracula tooth and crooked teeth

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. I think you will find that the dental insurance companies will require you to be made dentally fit before they will take you on.

I think given your age that braces would be your best bet but to find out which type is the most suitable for your teeth you would need a consultation with your local orthodontist.

   Hi

   Both of my canine teeth on the top set are higher than the rest, making them look abit like dracula teeth. Im abit self concious about having a brace as i’m nearly 30, but wondered if I would have the option of an Inman aligner?

   Many thanks
