I just need one tooth straightened, what is my best option?

Q.
Hi Dr Moore, I was hoping you could give me some advice. I am a 20 year old female, and when i was 16 i had metal braces to straighten my teeth through the nhs. My orthodontist made a great job and i was very pleased with the results. However, i stupidly kept forgetting to wear my retainers and one of my lateral incisors has pushed back between my front incisor and canine. (apologies for my wording here i dont know the correct names for the teeth!) The rest of my teeth are fine but as you can imagine that one tooth is making my smile crooked! Can you help me and tell me the best way to resolve this, preferably without going through 2 years of braces again! I just want to push that tooth back out! I am willing to pay whatever it costs! Can you give me any help? Thanks.

Hello, It sounds like a job for an Inman Aligner. That works really well for a single tooth and if worn correctly can move the tooth very quickly often in less than 2-3 months I wish you the best of luck with your treatment
