My front two teeth have always been stuck out
Q. My front two teeth have always been stuck out teeth so when I was younger I had a total of 6 teeth taken out but never a brace put on for some reason. I think I have a large overbite as there is a large gap between the top and bottom teeth when closed. I feel that the front teeth are pushing further forward – is this possible? When I wake up I can certainly feel that my jaw isn’t aligned and bottom teeth are much further back. Do you think fixed braces would push the teeth back, but I would need surgery to sort my jaw line out? Can this procedure be done only by a cosmetic dentist – would my normal dentist have to refer me?
A. Hi many thanks for your enquiry, your case does not seem to be straight forward. yes braces will help to allign the teeth to a certain degree but dependant on the level of overbite and overjet you suffer surgery may be a consideration. i feel it may be better to seek the advice of a orthodontist who will be able to guide you better. many orthodontist now offer a free consultation. hope this is helpful.

I have a question too. My front teeth pushes out, while the rest of my teeth are in place. It seems like those two front teeth are too big to fit in. Is there a way i can make it smaller, or make the two front teeth fit in place (with the use of invisilign) thanks
