I’m having Lingual braces fitted tomorrow

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m having Lingual braces fitted tomorrow and am 31. Recently having spoken to my local dentist I am regretting having chosen the lingual option with the Orthodentist (I chose this for aesthetic reasons as my work involves presenting to outside clients etc). He advised that Linguals are no good – is this the case?? Also how can I ease into the Lingual braces quicker as I understand that eating and talking will be harder??

I hate my crooked smile and misaligned teeth

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008
Q.
I’m 19/20. I absolutely HATE my smile, I have crowded crooked teeth and NEED to get them fixed. I’m terrified of braces and honestly don’t know if I would have the patience to stick with them for 2/3 years! I visited a cosmetic dentist before and he said that I would need 6 veneers on top and 5 on the bottom. However, only 6 of the teeth in my whole mouth are misaligned. I am fine with the colour of my teeth (although they could be a bit whiter!) and the size of them but I can’t live with the crookedness of them anymore!!! Obviously with my age the main issue of dentistry is the money, are there any payment plans that you are aware of? does your surgery support this method of payment? do you have any suggestions or recomendations for me? Thanks so so much

A.
Obviously we would need to see… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008
Q.
Hi, As a child i never had braces, but i should have! My teeth are crooked but i have one tooth that sticks out.

My invisalign is uncomfortable and painful

Saturday, June 28th, 2008
Q.
I have just been fitted with an invisalign brace, with the hope of shifting my lower front teeth to fill a gap where I lost a tooth. I am very unhappy with the aligner because it is very uncomfortable (a sharp bit of plastic digs into the underside of my tongue) and I have found it difficult to sleep. And now, having read some of the Q&As on this site, I see that you do not recommend the invasalign system for shifting teeth (I currently have a gap right at the front). Is this correct – and should the aligner be more comfortable?
