Q. Dear Dr, I would be grateful if you would give me some advice. I am need t get braces to correct overcrowding on both the top and bottom teeth. I have had a consultation for 6 month braces. I am not sure whether to get them or to go for traditional braces. Have you had any dealings with 6 months braces? Would you recommend them?
A. I would always recommend traditional braces as the first choice of treatment. 6 months braces can only be used in specific cases which involve mild to moderate crowding of the front teeth.

Q. Hi There, I have a tongue thrust, and it is causing my two front teeth to separate in an upside down V. This is concerning to me because I wore braces for 4 years (about 7 years ago) and did speech therapy to re-train my tongue. I have a night guard that I wear although not regularly because it is uncomfortable, despite that it is in rest that the pushing occurs. Would veneers be a viable option to correct this cosmetically, while continuing to wear a guard at night?
A. Yes veneers might help but you’ll need a new reatiner to stop them moving

Q. Hello there, Sorry to bother you but I have two quick questions if you could answer them please? I have previously had fixed braces (both) when I was younger, my bottom brace only stayed on for 4 weeks instead of 6 months as planned. I then had them both removed (after having top on for 1 1/5yrs prior to bottom) and wore the retainer 24 hrs a day for the year. I then went for the yearly check up point and my retainer was taken off of me. My teeth went wonky within months, and I have been too scared to go back. I get really upset about my teeth and suffered alot with braces to still have wonky teeth. I am 19 and in full time education and have swapped dentist now. My wisdom teeth have been coming through for a year and causing me grief, will they fit braces with the wisdom teeth growing through and are they likely to get funded by the NHS? Sorry its so long and hope its understandable for you to answer. Many thanks
A. Hi, thanks for you questions. I wouldn’t expect you to get braces on the NHS and you may need to have the wisdom teeth removed before you have any other orthodontic treatment.

Q. Hello Dr Butt, My question is about the Inman Aligner, I have had mine in since the end of August, the first three weeks were great I could really feel and see the difference in my front teeth. The last four weeks or so I have said to my dentist that I can’t see or feel any movement which is the main part of the treatment. My dentist is now telling me that I should get a Clearstep like brace to finish it off for a further cost. I thought the Inman was all that was needed to complete the treatment – what can I do??
A. hi
the inman is usually a 12 week treatment depending on how long you wear it each day
it aligns the teeth pretty well but for fine detail finishing clear aligners can be used.
it depends if you are happy to finish where you are or want to continue and get a nicer result.
it is normal for the inman not to feel as tight as the teeth move into the right position so dont worry about this.

Q. Hi Dr Solanki, I have a narrow tooth to the left of my front teeth and to the left of that tooth I have a fang tooth which I really hate the appearance and feeling of, it is positioned a bit higher than my other teeth and when my mouth is closed if you press along my mouth you can clearly feel a difference there, also when smiling it does not look good. I love to smile but past few years I smile alot less with my mouth open, it does affect me and in general most of my teeth need fixing eg; straightened, some reshaped to look even and whitened. I was wondering what could be done to help with my upper left fang tooth so it looks normal and also for all my teeth to be straight, even and white? I would prefer not to have braces. Hope you can make some sense of what I am asking for here and also any general pricing to give me an idea would be great. Many Thanks.
A. Thanks for your questions, although you would prefer not to have braces, I would encourage you to look into the various types of braces which are available today. There are systems which can work in as little as six weeks, as well as systems which are virtually invisble. If however this is really not for you, you may wish to consider having the teeth veneered. The veneers could be used to alter the size, shape, colour and overall aesthetic appearance of your teeth, to create the smile you desire. I hope this helps.
Many Thanks

Q. Hi there. I have been unhappy with the gaps in my upper and lower teeth. I had them recently filled but still i have a gummy smile and not all the gaps in my lover set of teeth could be filled because the gaps were to big. What other treatments could i get to get a really nice stright smile? Thanks for your time.
A. You need to have your teeth assessed properly you may be able to have the spaces closed with braces either fixed metal or invisalign. Another option may be porcelain veneers as this could also reduce the gummy smile.

Q. Dear Rob, I am a 17 year old who used to wear braces about 2 years back.I wore retainers for a year (day and night) but after that I stopped wearing it. Recently I noticed my wisdom tooth starting to grow and I feel my front two teeth have come forward a bit. Is this possible? The rest of my teeth are strait but the front two teeth are a bit forward-unlike how it was before. How do I push it back again? Do I need braces? If so do I have to take off teeth again to move it back?
A.
Hi the teeth can crowd at the same time that wisdom teeth appear but it is less clear whether its caused by the wisdom teeth. You could start using a retainer again. Reversing the effect would need a thorough clinical assesment before answering.
Regards Rob

Q. i want to ask i have had braces in the past but i dint wear my containers and now my teeth have become crooked again. whats the best advice.
A.
Thanks for your question, as with all orthodontic treatments, if you do not wear your retainer, your teeth will naturally move to the position they were in prior to treatment. I would recommend you consult a dentist to discuss further orthodontic treatment to correct the positioning of your teeth and consider a fixed retainer on completion. I hope this will be helpful for you.
Kind regards

Q. i’m looking to get braces, and would much prefer the Inman Aligner done. However, I’m not sure if i’m a likely candidate for the treatment. A baby canine tooth that I should have had removed 10 years ago, has forced the adult canine tooth to grow underneath it, pushing it to the inside of my upper gum. After having that baby canine tooth taken out, now i would like for the adult canine tooth to be put in it’s right place on my upper gum via orthodontic treatment. Having seen the prices, of normal traditional braces extending between £2000 and £3000, i saw that not only were Inman Aligners cheaper, but they also carried out the treatment in a significantly shorter space of time. So my question is, is it possible to have that canine tooth pushed forward, towards the center of my gum, or will I have to settle for traditional braces? (Can the Inman Aligner be used to treat the canine teeth as well, or just the 4 incisors
A. I don’t think the Inman will work that well in this situation. I think you would need conventional orthodontics peraps with ceramic white brackets to make it less obvious. This will give you your best long-term solution.

Q. My front teeth are big and prutruding, i wore a brace when I was younger, but probably did not give it enough time. I have always been paraniod of my teeth, and now coming up to my wedding i dread the photos. How much on average would it cost to correct?
A. Although the cost of teeth straightening will vary between practices, I can tell you that my practices are currently offering teeth straightening systems from £99. It may also help you to know that there are systems available now which can acheive results in as little as six weeks. I hope this helps.

Q. HI Dr Andrew Moore,I was just wanting to know what is the cost of braces? My Own dentist has never advised i need them but i think myself i do? i do work full time and 19? could you possible help ! Thanks
A. Hello, thanks for your question. There are lots of different types of braces for different degree’s of crowding and what you want to wear during the treatment. There are invisable braces such as Invisalign, fixed braces including 6 month smiles and removable braces such as the Inman aligner. I would recommend a free smile consultation to give you a better idea of what we can do for you. If you would like me to take a look please e-mail enquiry@advancedentalclinic.com or call my clinic on 01245 268 494

Q. Hi, I have a quick question I hope you might be able to answer. One of my front teeth is slightly twisted and is particularly noticeable when you look at it from the side. It makes me self-conscious when I smile, although my other teeth are still in place and I would be happy to leave them where and how they are. I wore a fixed brace and then a removeable brace as a teenager and have recently had my top 2 wisdom teeth removed due to overcrowding (perhaps this may have caused the front tooth to twist?). I asked my dentist about possible treatments but he seemed reluctant to suggest anything as the tooth is healthy. I wouldn’t want to wear another fixed brace and ideally would want a quick, long term solution, preferably not too expensive. I was wondering what might be the best option? Thanks.
A.
Thanks for your question, probably the quickest method to improve the appearnace and position of a tooth would be to place a veneer on the tooth. The dentist may be able to prepare the tooth, so that a veneer would sit in line with your other teeth, however depending on how much preperation is involved, it may require root treatment of the tooth as well. The other alternative would be a straightening system. I know that you are reluctant to wear fixed braces again, but you may be interested in the Inman aligner, which can acheive results in as little as six weeks, and is also one of the most cost effective straightening systems. I hope this will help you mae a decsion.
I wish you well.

Q. Dear Mr Bohara, My top central incisors or the teeth shown when u smile closest to the nose. Have been pushed outwards to such a degree that, when i smile you cannot see many teeth and definitely not my top set of teeth. This is highly embarrassing for me, are there anyways i can push them back in??. I presume this was caused due to the fact that, i used to suck my thumb throughout my child hood. Causing my teeth to be pushed outwards. What can i use to push my teeth inwards? can i use removable retainers? rather than fixed braces??
A.
Hi
Your possible options may be
1. damon braces
2. invisalign
Of course you would require a full examination, to give you a definitive treatment option. I hope this helps.

Q. I’m thinking about getting a brace as my two front teeth are inverted, i beleive this was caused by my wisdom teeth putting pressure on them (I have since had all my wisdom teeth removed) I would like to know if a brace could fix them and make them straight, how much it will cost, and how long the procedure will take and what type of braces involved. If you can get back to me with the above information I will be very grateful.
A. I’m sure a brace will help to straighten the teeth. There are lots of different types of braces available including fixed or removable. If you would like me to give you an idea of your optins please feel free to contact me on 01245 268 494.

Q. Hi I have wonkey teeth and i was wondering would braces straighten them out without having major surgery? And can you get clear braces? Look forward to hearing from you Thank You
A. Thanks for your questions, braces are used to straighten misaligned teeth, but I would recommend that you visit a dental professional to find out for certain if this is suitable for your particular case. There are clear brace systems on the market now which can be used, such as Invisalign and Clearstep. I wish you well with your treatment.
