Am I at risk of decalcification from lack of oral hygiene and wearing damon braces?

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011
Q.

Hi

I am 30 and 10 months ago I started orthodontic treatment with damon brackets. At first I was diligent with cleaning but as the novelty wore off the cleaning became gradually worse.

I am now worried about decalcification. Although I do have them professionally cleaned about every three months.

I explained my concern to my dentist who said they looked clean and I wouldn’t know if I have any white spots until my braces are removed in about a year.

I haven’t mentioned it to my Ortho.

I thought that the white marks appeared around the brackets and so I should be able to see if I have them. On inspection in good light I can’t see anything.

My question is if I can’t see any marks now does that mean I can still prevent decalcification? or do I have to wait (a year) and see.

Thank you for your time

I have overlapping teeth and a narrow smile, how can I change this?

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011
Q.

Hi. I wore a brace as a teenager for two years to correct my crowded over lapping teeth. It fixed it. Now as an adult (36) ive noticed over the years that my teeth have overlapped at the front again and i have a very narrow smile. You can see gaps between my inside cheek and teeth when i smile. My two front teeth over lap slightly and the ones beside it have turned so you can see the side of them. I dont expect hoolywood teeth or perfect gnashers but i really want my smile to be a little more broad. i want to see at least six teeth at the fron of my mouth when i smile rather than 4. P.s my teeth are in good condition. What could i have done which would not cost too much. Please say i dont have to wear another horrid block brace??? Thank you and look forward to your answer.

If I had damon braces would the protrusion be noticeable?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
Hi! I have moderate to severe crocked teeth at the top and bottom. I was told that with the Damon Q braces I would get straighten teeth and a wider smile. However, with the treatment my top teeth would be protruded between 4 and 6 millimetres.. It could be up to 6,7 milimiters. Would this protrusion be horrible and be very noticeable, when I have a straight face, when I smile or talk? Do you have photographs which shows different degrees of protrusions? Is it better to have crooked teeth or protruded teeth ? Thank you.,
A.
