I have just been through the process of volunteering

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Q.

I have just been through the process of volunteering at leeds dental institute and was promised after all my appointments i was gauranteed to have my teeth straightened for free.

I never got chance to get a brace when i was younger and i am now 20.

Today at my orthodontics appointment i have been told my teeth are not bad enough for treatment at the institute, so i have returned to look for private care.

My teeth are moderately-severe crowded top and bottom, and i have a overjet of about 6mm. my top centre line is correct but my bottom is 1mm to the left.

What would you suggest would be the best brace for me?
I would preferably prefer something relatively cheap and maybe something less discreet that traditional braces if possible

I don’t know whether to choose the fixed braces or invisalign, any advice?

Friday, September 3rd, 2010
Q.
hi, well basically i am 25 and unhappy with my teeth. I have an overjet on the top 2 teeth and crowding on the bottom front teeth. I was interested in invalign and have been to see two orthodontists. The first one assured me that my teeth would be perfect at the end of the treatment but the second one put me off slightly as he said that my teeth would be much better than they are now but to get the best result i would have to get a traditional fixed brace…leaving me confused as i dont want the fixed brace but i dont want to pay for invisalign and not get the desired results. *the second ortho said that there are two teeth on,

Can you give me some information about corrective jaw surgery?

Friday, August 6th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I am a 22 year old female and i have an appox 1cm positive overjet. I had braces when i was a teenager so my teeth are fairly straight however the overjet didnt get corrected. I think my only option now is corrective jaw surgery but i am finding it difficult to find information about it. Please could you send me some about the risks, costs etc. Many thanks.,

Would the inman aligner solve the problems in my case?

Monday, May 24th, 2010
Q.
I have a 3mm overjet on both of my front teeth and slight overjet on both teeth beside each of my front teeth as well as a 0.5mm gap between my front teeth. In layman terms I have no spacing besides the gap between my two front teeth and my teeth just need to be tilted back. Could the inman aligner solve this problem for me? Thank you for answering.,

Hi Dr Andrew I am a 28 year old female who has 6 of

Friday, March 5th, 2010
Q.
Hi Dr Andrew I am a 28 year old female who has 6 of her front teeth shooting out (Overjet) with gaps in between them and my lower teeth four of them are a bit misaligned A dentist said i have flared incisors another one recomended damon braces and a third dentist recommended the six month smile. I am a bit skeptical about the six month smile (Clear fixed braces). I really do not mind any kind of braces but I am a bit confused. Could you shed more light on the 6 month smile braces cos I am confused about which one to use. Does the six month smile system really work cos i want my front and bottom teeth to be straightened and my cross and uneven bites fixed. Thank you.,
