I bite the inside of my cheeks alot, almost ever day since almost 10 or more yrs im 23 now.I don’t know what trigged this behavior but i cant stop. Every time im idle, i tend to do it.Even when im studying i do it the most also when im anxious. Im scared that it might lead to cancer since its a chronic habit. I really need help to stop it.Do you know by any chance why i do it and how i can stop it. Thank you

A. It can be because your teteh angle outwards or do not meet properly which can be corrected by orthodontics(tooth straightening).  Sometimes wisdom teeth can cause this go to your dentist so your teeth and bite can be checked.

I am on my last aligner. I still feel that my teeth can be more straighter wih more alighners. could I ask for more aligners? Thanks

A. Thanks for your questions, this would depend onthe system you have used. If you have had Invisalign type treatment, you should be able to return to your dentist for refinement. This will involve taking further impressions and having more aligners made to acheive the results you are expecting. Please do not hesitate to contact me again if you need further assistance.

Dr Solanki, Would a product like Invisalign be suitable for someone who has a crown on one of their two front top teeth and a double winged bridge on one of their lower left teeth? Are there any other options that could be used that have the same effect of straightening teeth that have gaps between them that could be used? Thank you for your time

A. Thanks for your questions, it is still possible to have Orthodontic treatment when you have crowns and bridges, Although I would recommend that any new restorations are delayed until after orthodontic treatment. There are many different methods for teeth straightening, each with their own advantages, such as invisble braces and braces which can work in as little as six weeks. I would recommend that you consult with a dentist or orthodontist to gain advise on which system would be best suited to your particular case.
Many thanks

I have quite severe overcrowding in my lower teeth leaving the front 4 quite crooked, one in particular which is pushed back behind the others. My top teeth are also slightly crooked but nowhere near as bad as the bottom. It has left me miserable and embarrassed to talk or smile. I am 30 years old. What would be your recommended treatment, how much is it likely to cost, and are such treatments usually payable by a payment plan? Thank you.

A. Thanks for your questions, you should be pleased to find out that most practices which offer teeth straightening treatments have the facility to provide payment plans. Many even offer interest free credit, subject to status. There are many straightening systems available, all with there own advantages, from invisible braces, to braces which work in as little as six weeks. Although prices will vary between systems and practices, I can tell you that I currently offer treatments from £999. I hope this helps.

Hello , i am 22 years old, i am in london for about 3 years and i am asylum seeker i dont work and i cant work but can you tell me how much is fees to straighten my upper front teeth for inman aligner treatment? and and if its affordable can i pay treatment fees in installments? and if not then can u tell me which is fast and easy way to straighten my teeth? and can u suggest any doctor who do inman aligners treatment in india? waiting for your reply . Thank you.

A. Thanks for your questions, the cost for the Inman aligner will vary between practices, but I am currently offering this service from £999. Many cosmetic dental practices do offer payment plans, but to the best of my knowledge, you (or your partner) would need to be in employment. The Inman aligner is one of the most cost effective and quickest treatments available to straighten teeth. I would suggest, that you research providers in India on the internet. Kind Regards.

Hey I have research about lingual braces and i am very interested in getting them… my question is do your teeth still move over time after the braces are taken off and do I have to wear a retainer after I take my braces off? Another question would be is that if I was to get lingual braces… is it possible to make payments by installments? Please get back to me

A. Thanks for your questions, as with most teeth straightening treatments, it would be recommended that you wear a retainer once your treatment is completed in order to prevent your teeth from moving back to their natural position. If you feel that you would not wear a removal retainer regularly, you may wish to consider a fixed retainer. Although payment options will vary between practices, many will have the facility to offer payment plans such as interest free credit to halp you spread the cost of your traetment.
