I have one tooth that sticks out at the front. What is the best option as i want an immediate result and how much will it cost.

For front teeth that stick out there can be a few options including the following:

traditional braces
Inman Aligner
Invisalign invisible braces
Veneers – if your tooth does not stick out too far

Your best option would be to have an assessment with a cosmetic dentist and he/she should be able to advise you on the appropriate plan of action. The cost of treatment will depend on the option that you decide to go for but can range from as little as £500.00 for a veneer upto £4000.00 for invisalign braces.

Hello, What price does the inman aligners start please? Also in some Londonclinics they do instalments with no interest. any advice? Many thanks

Hi, I’m a 19 year old female and I am very interested in the ‘Inman Aligners’ as I am very unhappy woth my teeth. I wore braces for a year when I was younger, and unfortunately I was not supplied with a retainer for reasons unknown to me. As a result, I still have a slight open bite and a coupleof slightly crooked teeth. What price would I be looking at for these? I amnot rich, so are there any monthly payment plans or something similar thatI could do? Thanks for reading.

Hi, I am interested in getting Inman Aligners, ideally for top (overbite) and bottom (crooked) teeth. Is it possible to have both sets of aligners atthe same time? Also, is there a minimum cost for aligners? Regards

I am interested in getting invisalign. Can you tell me if there are any payments arrangements for this such as paying for it per month .

I am interested in veneers and was wondering how much this would cost.

Looking for a price for full veneers top and bottom.

My front two teeth go inward. I would like 2 veneers and teeth whitening. Iam not sure on which veneers to go with. I don’t want that “straight line”American look.

I am interested in the 6 Month Smile. Please can you send me price and if it is possible to do monthly payments?

Hi, I am interested in getting braces fitted, however my teeth are extremely uneven and therefore I am keen to discuss the best option that is available. Do you offer a free consultation? Thank you.

Hi Im have noticed that since my wisdom teeth have come through my teeth are not as straight as they used to be. Whilst I am not too worried about this at present, I am worried that in the future they will get worse. I do notwish to have a permanent brace or invisaligns. But someone did suggest that I could arrange for a retainer to be made that would put my teeth back totheir original position. Do you offer this kind of service? And could youprovide me with an idea of the prices involved? Thanks

I am really interested in your Iman Aligner for teeth. I was just wonderingwhat the price would be? As my teeth are not terrible and I have never hadany work done to my teeth before, their is only one slight problem and that my front tooth on my bottom row is bending back and when I have been to the dentist they say I have half a tooth to many and when I was younger I should have got it taken out and got a brace to push them together and they would have been straight. It is has got to the point where I cannot floss between them at all and I feel as though it is really noticeable. If you could let me know exactly how much it would cost for me to get my tooth fixed Iwould be very greatful. Thanks Alot

I had braces at about the age of 12, and unfortunately about a year or so later my night time retainer broke and I couldn’t afford to replace it. Myfront two top teeth and one on the bottom have started to move back makingme feel awkward when I smile. I was just wondering how much Inman Aligner actually costs? Thank you

Hi, I am very interested in the Inman Aligner Treatment as one of my top teeth sticks out a little further than the other. Could I please book in fora consultation as soon as possible? Approximately how much is the overall cost of this treatment (Upper only)? I have a bridge that is attached to myupper right cuspid and 2nd upper right cuspid – I notice that most alignersgo across the top four teeth, is it possible that it could only go acrossthe front two? I am a bit apprehensive that it could affect the bridge andmake it come out if the teeth to which it is attached was moved.. I also have a discoloured tooth that I would be interested in getting a crown for. If you could answer my queries via email first I would be very grateful. Many thanks

My dentist used an inman brace to correct my two front teeth they relasped after using a fixed brace. I feel that he has filed too much of the width and the length. my canine teeth look long compared to the rest,then bonding was used to help give length,now my bite has moved. would invisalign fix my bite?

I would need to see you to give you the best options.

Hi i have severely crooked teeth, including premolars. can the inman aligner help me in thisd instance?

No I am sorry but the Inman Aligner is only for the centrals and laterals. You might be a candidate for Short Term Ortho though, check out 6 month braces

I was just wondering at what age are you able to start wearing Invisalign? My daughter is 12 and has most of her adult teeth, would we have to wait until she has all of her adult teeth? Her teeth are a little buck, which I feel is due to me letting her chew a dummy so much when she was little and I really don’t want her to feel awkward because of her teeth when she goes to high school. When would be the best and soonest time for her to receive treatment? thank you very much for your time

there is no rush to treat her as she is still growing. I would wait till she is 14 if she wants Invisalign treatment. My daughter was 15 when she started hers.

hello, i hope you are well doctor, i was just wondering if the inman aligner can be used in the treatment of twisted teeth? I have three all together right at the front of my mouth and they also affect the way my bite sits so i would really, really liked to get them sorted out as soon as possible! Also what is the general price of Inman aligner, i recieved a quote of £1500 but i just think it would be better if i checked with a second orthodontists to find out what i should save up for Thank you for any advice you can give and for reading my email

Yes the Inman Aligner can be used to correct twisted or rotated teeth but if they are too t=rotated or twisted you might need braces. I cannot comment on costs as each persons needs dictate the fees. Regards, Don

Hello I see from your website that the inman aligner can provide results in 6 weeks, what is an average case that is treatable in this time. I have a slight gap between my front tooth and as i am sick of being called cletus, i would really like to have it rectified, but am not really liking the thought of wearing a brace for too long. I know you would have to see me in person, but could you give me a general estimate of my own case, or give an example of a case you treated in 6 weeks? I just want to make certain that i am choosing the right braces when i go to my dentist thanks very much for your time

Closing space is easy as long as there is room between your upper front teeth and lower front teeth. If there is room this space could be closed in weeks not months.

hi i’ve heard there are different types of the inman aligner, would you be able to tell me which would be best for me? I have a large gap at the front of my mouth, and both teeth kinda awkwardly protrude forward. I would like something that is as unnoticeable as possible and although i think something like invisalign might be more discreet, the treatment times with your brace seem to be a great deal shorter. which of you inman aligner do you think would be suitable for me? Thank you for your time and any info you can give me

If you want discreet then Invisalign will be your choice, if you want speed the Inman Aligner Retraction Only might be your choice. Only a provider can tell you if and which Inman Aligner could be used for your specific needs. Regards,

Hello I wish to have my teeth straightened in time for my wedding which is in 3 months. It is mainly the crowding at the front of my mouth that has bothered me for years and with my wedding fast approaching I thought it was about time that I did something about it. I know it may be a little short notice, but it does seem that the inman aligner has the shortest treatment time out of the other braces ive read about. I’d really love to have a decent smile in time for my wedding so any help you could give would be greatly appreciated thanks very much, hope to hear from you soon

Hi I would recommend you visit a dentist who provides various teeth straightening options asap so you could get started asap. Treatment times depend on the complexity of the crowding you have so treatment can take anything between 2-9 months approximately.

I am 55 year old. My upper incisors left 1&2, right 3 are irregular bend outside. Lower 4 incisors are in one line but bent outwards. When the jaws are pressed there is about 2mm gap between the front teeth upper and lower. Other teeth are fine and well in position. So I cann’t laugh heartfully. What I learnt from my mother that I fell down and got a thrust on my teeth in childhood, front teeth were loosened, so my teeth are not regular. At that time no medical (dental) treatment were given. Otherwise I am a healthy, handsome man with my looks disproportionate to my age. Can it be rectified at this age and what will be the cost.

Hi It is vey difficult to give a treatment plan without actually examining your mouth. One possible option could be braces and this can range from £2000 to £6000 depending on type and complexity.

Good Morning I wore braces for 5years of my life and at the age of 20 that seems like a lot. In order to have my braces i had teeth removed and now the lower of my jaw has lots of gaps. Does it sound like i would be suitable to have the invisalign treatment? I previously had an over bit but that has now been corrected. The gaps are in my front lower teeth and in the back of my mouth. With my teeth my case was very severe and my dentist told me that one day i may need to have my jaw broken to fix the over bite but this doesnt resolve the gaps that i have in my teeth. I unserstand i wil need a full consultation but I would just ike to ask. Thank you

Gappy teeth can be successfully treated with invisalign. I can’t tell whether it is the best option for you but if you are the ideal candidate your dentist would tell you at your consultation Best Wishes

Hello, What would happen after having Invisalign full – and the teeth were not straight..then having 3 separate lots of the extra braces for adjustments and they still were not strait? I have come to the end of my treatment and my front teeth still are not fully strait and I am being told that I have to pay additional money to the £3200 that I paid originally.

Hi Included in the Invisalign full mouth treatment, there are three sets of refinement aligners included, which is usually sufficient to align the teeth so long as they have been worn full time. I would advise you to discuss with your dentist about your options – it may mean some auxillary treatment to fine tune the alignment as aligners may not be sufficient to treat this. Good luck

hello I have a very pronounced crossbite, which affects my eating and speaking and just causes embarrassment on a daily basis. I’ve got together some ‘brace money’ so I can finally get treatment and i just wanted to make sure I was asking for the best braces for my condition. In your professional opinion is invisalign a good choice for the treatment of crossbite? And if not is there anything else you can recommend?

it really depends on the severity of the crossbite. If the crossbite is too severe to correct with Invisalign, you can consider Damon braces.

hello im coming towards the end of my invisalign and im still not completely happy with the straightness of my teeth. will i have to have more aligners made to complete my treatment? thank you for any info you can give

Hi there! It is likely you will need refinement. It is quite usual, especially in very crowded cases. Talk to your treating dentist, I am sure he/she will be happy to address your concern. Best of luck with the rest of your treatment!

hello 🙂 my invisalign treatment is coming to an end but i am still not completely happy with the appearance and straightness of my teeth, Can I get extra aligners for addressing this and will these be including with the price i worked out with my dentist? thank you for your time

Hi there! It sounds like that you will need refinement. Talk to your dentist, Invisalign full offers free refinement, but with other types of Invisalign treatment there may be charge for this. Best of luck with the remaining of your treatment!

Hi, i have crowded top front teeth which i need to fix. unfortunatly i did not fix this braces regretting it bad. I just wanted to know the cost of fixing it. without braces.I do somehow feel it effects my jaw because its constantly clicking and feels weird. I’m still a student would the nhs help me with the cost do you know? i am so desperate to fix my teeth it really effects my self esteem and apparently its not even good for your overall oral health

Braces start from £1500. You need to find out from your local PCT to see whether you are eligible for braces under the NHS. Please do not put treatment off because of costs, you can have treatment at many practices that allow you to spread costs over a year

how much to you estimate for invisalign for two crossed over front teeth? I want to get it done as soon as possible for my sister’s wedding and just wanted to make sure that I could afford the overall cost thank you

Prices vary depending on what you need you will needto speak to your invisalign dentistto get exact quotes, invisalign may not be the quickest method to starighten your teeth. You can call my practice and arrange a free consultation to look at all the options available to you.

I’m a 49 year-old male and my bottom teeth are quite crowded – in fact, the lateral incisor and first premolar are almost adjacent and the eye tooth is in front of them. Would the Inman Aligner be suitable for correction of this type of teeth alignment? I appreciate you would need to see the teeth to give a definitive answer but a general guide would be useful (i.e. is the Inman Aligner more suitable for mild to moderate crowding only or is it effective for all types of crowding?). I can’t find this information readily online so your assistance is much appreciated. Thanks,

i really, really hate needles and extractions of any kind, i just get all nauseous even thinking about it, but I also need braces-for crowding…and im guessing that im going to need quite a few teeth taking out? What do you think? i would rather avoid it to be honest if at all possible, but just wanted a professional opinion before i went to my own dentist. thank you

Not everyone requires extractions for crowding correction. Damon braces treat crowding effectively and give great results and the extraction rate with this system is very low. I would recommend a consultation for an assessment with an experienced dentist that provides all types of braces.

would it be possible for the inman aligner to straighten out my crossed over front teeth? I’ve had this problem for quite a while and it not only causes discomfort to do with appearance, but they are also a lot harder to clean than my other teeth, and ive had to have cleaning and fillings on them before because of this. I would really like the fastest treatment possible and even if you could not recommend the inman aligner for this would you be able to recommend anything else, another type of brace or a different procedure? thank you for your help

it really depends on the degree of overlap. I have used the inman aligner successfully on front crossed over teeth. If the crowding is too severe you can consider invisible braces, six month braces, lingual braces, damon braces etc

My orthodontist has told me that i need refinements to my invisalign. Could you tell me what this entails and does it cost me anything else? thank you

Refinement is a very useful adjunct to Invisalign which allows us to order a few more stages to make any further corrections at the end of Invisalign treatment. Your dentist will take new impressions and photograph’s and submit them to Invisalign. They will get a new clin-check showing the correction movements to give you an even better end result. You need to ask your dentist if there is a charge for this as its very much up to the dentists discretion. Good luck

Hi I need a great deal of work doing on my teeth, one of my molars has grown completely on its side, i have a reasonable sized overbite, one of my wisdom teeth is coming through horizontally and my lower are facing the wrong way, most of the bottom set of teeth overlap one another. The problems are mainly on the lower set but I cannot afford the orthodontic work, is there a teaching hospital that would cover the sort of treatment that needs to be done?

Possibly but you’ll need a referral from your general dentist

do you think i can stop my invisalign treatment even though i have 2 aligners left? i like my teeth as they are right now and don;t think i would need anymore treatment. I would have to ask my dentist of course, but have you had any instances when this has happened? thank you

I am always reluctant to finish treatment too early and always tell my patients to try and persevere til the end for better stability and better results. If you only have two aligners left, you don’t have much longer til the end and those 4 weeks will fly by

my front two teeth are protruding like an A shape. a part of them overlaps the adjoining two teeth. So they are not straight to look at and appear protruding like an A. I am 24 years old. I want them fixed coz it gives me great embarassment when i smile.i dont know what method i can use to get them fixed. A dentist has suggested that he would cut the teeth that is the overlapping part from the sides and in between and then fix caps so that the two teeth look aligned with the rest of the teeth. But my parents are worried that they might get disfigured and worst so i should not touch them at all with any dentist. Please help me

One option may be to straighten them with a form of brace but difficult to comment without an examination.

my dentist tells me that my inman aligner treatment should be over in about a month, but i am still not completely happy with the straightness of my teeth. I feel that the top ones are still a little bit crooked, and im not sure if they’ll be any better in only a month. If at the end i am still not happy is there anything i can say or do to get my dentist to extend the treatment? I am currently paying £2000 for my treatment, how much do you think it would cost me on top of that to have the treatment extended to ensure that my smile is how i’d like it? thank you

I would recommend speaking to your dentist.

I am writing to you to ask for a piece of advice. I went for an initial consultation about straightening teeth to the orthodontist suggested by my dentist. I would like to get another opinion to make sure the treatment suggested is the best suitable and the price is reasonable. How would you suggest choosing an expert for a consultation? Is paying around £100 for an opinion is the only option to do this? Thank you in advance

I’m afraid thats the best thing to do as you’re getting a fresh pay of eyes looking at a case and giving their opinion from scratch, so you’ll need to pay for a new consult fee

I have gaps in my teeth and some of them are crooked. My normal dentist said I will need to have orthodontic work with braces to sort out my problems. My first choice would be Invisalign because from what I have read it’s hard to see them. I am 19 so I don’t want a big metal brace in my mouth. If I can’t have Invisalign for whatever reason, what would be the next best kind of brace? The important think for me is that it is as discreet as possible. Thank you for your help.

Hi, lingual braces are a very discreet way to correct crooked teeth. The other options are six month braces or damon clear. I would recommend a consultation to see which are the best options for you

I am a 39 year old woman who over the last few years noticed that one of my 2 front teeth starting to move forwards. This now makes me feel very concious of smiling and wanted to know what my options are. I have been researching inman alighner, six month smile and invisalign and clearstep but just wondered as its only one tooth that has significantly moved would simpli5 be an option? I like the idea of 6 month smile but read some troubling reviews and also think that a clear aligner like clearstep might suit me and make me feel less uncomforable. would appreciate you advice. Thank you.

I would need to see you to give you the best options I provide all those treatments and some others so am sure I can find something to suit you.

Hi there. I’m 28 and I have severely crooked teeth and severe overcrowding particularly in the top set. I didn’t get braces as a teenager and as a result my teeth have set in to an unnatural place. I have an extreme underbite, when I bite down on my back teeth, my bottom teeth cover my top teeth in the front. This has been a source of embarrassment and distress for me for a long time. I was going to get braces a few years ago but the process that was advised would be very long. I would need to wear braces for about a year on just my bottom teeth to move them out of the way in order to then fit braces on to the top teeth for a year at least. Then, I would require surgery to break both jaws and move them in to place. The factor that put me off was having to wear braces for so long and I was told that the braces on the bottom would push my teeth out giving me a very noticeable under bite (whereas at the moment I can hide it, it’s only noticeable when I bite down in my back teeth), so basically, I would look a lot worse for a couple of years before I would look better. My confidence is low enough because of my teeth as it is! The idea of surgery to fix the problem doesn’t bother me so much. I wondered if there’s anything that can be done with cosmetic dentistry? To be honest, I’ve reached a stage where I’d be happy enough to have all my teeth removed and wear dentures! Sorry for the long message. I hope you can offer some advice. Thank you very much. Kind Regards
