My two front teeth have moved forward, is this because of the new lingual brace?
Q. Hi, I had an upper lingual brace fitted two weeks ago and had extractions before as my teeth are overcrowded. However, it seems as though one of my front two teeth has moved further forward! is this possible or am I just being paranoid? And how long does it generally take for the gap to close? Would really appreiciate a reply – many thanks,
A. If you have any issues with your treatment, it is always advisable to discuss this with the performing dentist. Don’t feel embarassed to ask questions and query anything in realtion to your braces/ortho treatment. Teeth can move in many different directions- some of them move out of alignment first and then back again. This is quite normal. All teeth move at different rates, and it also depends on the type of braces you have. I wouldn’t be too concerned at this stage, but you need to stress these concerns with the orthodontist. Good luck
