Are there any alternatives to metal attachments?

Monday, April 26th, 2010
Q.
my son is 15 and requires treatment to correct his over bite and align his top teeth.He plays trumpet and his music tutor recommended he asks for a removable braces so treatment would not affect his standard of playing. We spoke with his orthordontist and she said he could have a removable brace to sort top teeth but a fixed brace will be required to correct bite on bottom set. Although he is happy to proceed with this treatment my son wondered if there is an alternative to the metal attachments even if just for 4 of his front lower teeth to use when attaching brace to avoid riping his lip/gums when pressing the trumpet mouthpiece to his lips when playing. He only thought of this question after our last consultation.,

What is the best treatment to treat relapsed teeth?

Friday, February 19th, 2010
Q.
I am 29 and have a gap in the front of my teeth as a result of relapse from orthodontic treatment nearly 15 years ago, and i’m looking to get it fixed, given that i paid privately, I’m reallly keen not to pay a serious amount of money to get this work done. THe Dentist has retired, my records hae gone as has the surgery. How much should i be paying for such treatment and which options may be suitable. (I had ceramic, but not keen for those again, nor train tracks. Any others would be ok, but more pricey. Would you be able to advise on my best options and advise a guidline of what is a typical cost for this. I still have a plastic clear retainer, but have not used it for 10 years, I am frightened of it breaking and tehn I will be back to square one.,

Q.
I have had several dental opinions and have been quoted 3k for fixed ceramic braces which I will need to wear for approx a year. Is this quote reasonable? I have been to have moulds and xrays and have been told that my case is too severe for Inmans or Clear Steps.,

Is there a cheap orthodontic option?

Thursday, January 14th, 2010
Q.
Hello, I have had 2 consultations now regarding orthodontic treatment with 2 different dentists. I have been told that what i want to achieve is a minor case. But clearstep or invisalign are coming out very expensive and fixed braces a little less. Could a minor case not be treated with a removable appliance to reduce cost, or are there and other alternatives at a lower cost? Many Thanks,

I have loads of question between Clearstep & Invisalign.

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Q.
CLEARSTEP VS INVISALIGN I have a few questions about ‘invisible braces’: What are the differences between the two? How long will it take? I have been prompted to take action as I am getting married at the end of the year and although from the front my teeth look quite straight from the side they look really uneven. If I started it asap would it make much difference by December? I am happy to continue for longer, I would just like some difference by then. How much does it cost? Which one is more cheap/expensive? Are the effects lasting? I had a metal brace as a teenager that improved my teeth a bit but I don’t think it was kept on long enough. I would be willing to wear a retainer if it keeps my teeth nice. Is Clearstep a suitable alternative to cases where Invisalign would work? Does Clearstep require attachments to the teeth the same as Invisalign? Could you suggest me a good professional cosmetic dentistry expert in Oxford? Thank you in advance for your attention,

Is there any possibility to extract as many teeth to hv avg smile?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009
Q.
As an early teen I had chipped the top, front 6 of my teeth rollerblading. They felt loose for a while and had always bothered me the way they healed. It bothers me how my front teeth are displayed slightly misaligned to my left and with an overbite as well. The Army Dentist insisted on putting veneers over them. That never did anything to fix the misalignment problem of the front two top teeth being aligned under my nose. It seems the injury I must have suffered as a kid made the teeth grow in this way after they healed. I am disappointed and finished with the idea of trying to salvage my smile at this point in my life. I am wondering if you may be able to let me know if there is a possibility that there is a Dentist out there that would extract my front, top 6 teeth or as many as needed to have an average looking smile that is aligned under my nose. Thanks very much
