I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me

Q. Hi, I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me? I’ve previously looked into invisallign but was told it was not suitable. My problem I’d like to correct is crowding at the bottom. Although I’ve been told my top teeth are all shifted to the right so these would need to all move (which apparently is a lot more work). I also have two teeth which are rotating due to missing adult teeth that are non existant! I am 28 and have 2 baby teeth left in tact. My wisdom teeth are also fully erupted on my bottom so they are causing even more crowding. I’m guessing this sounds like a massive job? I’d like to have ocnfirmation that something is possible - I’ve been somewhere and was told it was would take too long and made to feel ashamed! so I’m at my wits end! I’d appreciate your feedback.

A. Hi

I am sorry to hear about your circumstances.

I am confident there is way to get your cheif complaint treated. Of course i can not comment on the methods , because a full examination would have to be carried out. You may require orthodontics alone or a combination of orthodontics and restorative work. Again it is very difficult to say without a clinical and radiogarphic examination.

Regards
