I Want To Know Whether I Should Straighten My Teeth Before Getting Caps Or After?
Q.
Hello Dr Moore, I’d like to discuss a problem I have. Currently I’m undergoing extensive gum grafting and implant preparation for two teeth with an eye toward crowns for the rest. My desire is to have my teeth straightened at some point. Still, my other dental team members seem to be running into interference with my orthodontist, so I don’t have his input. Should I wait until my teeth are capped and the implants installed before seeking further alignments? I hope you can help me with this and offer your advice. Thank you.

Hello, it’s a pleasure to answer your enquiry. Based on the information you have provided me with in your question I would personally suggest that you straighten the teeth first before finishing the caps but all cases are different so I’d need to see you to provide a more accurate assessment, so you’ll need to talk to your dentist about your case and discuss your problems. Thank you, Dr Andrew Moore.
