Q.
Dear Dr Glaister, I used to suck my thumb as a child, and when my upper wisdom teeth came out, my front teeth got pushed forward. I had the wisdom teeth removed, and was given retainers, which I wore for almost 3 years. My problem is that my front two teeth are positioned a little lower than the rest, especially on the right side of my mouth, where my incisor sits above the rest of the teeth, as it began to grow over my milk tooth. So when I laugh, my teeth are not perfectly aligned in height. I also feel as though my teeth protrude just a fraction over my bottom lip when i smile. I am now 24. Could you please tell me whether there is a solution to this at all, and if it involves braces, a quicker way of correcting this? Thank You.,
