what can i so about teeth straightening and crossed top teeth

Q. hello i am looking at getting some dental work. my front top tooth slightly crosses the other. i would want this straightening. also the 4 below it are not perfectly straight. these would also need looking at. .what options do i have. . i realsise you can now get clear braces. . what other optiona are available

A. you have a number of options.

Either Orthodontics, Crowns/Veneers or a combination of both.

For orthodontics you have 3 options.
1. Traditional Braces
2. Invisable Braces3. Inman Aligner

Provided the crowding is not too severe the inman aligner is a quick and relatively cheaper way of correcting the position of teeth. It is however noticable, but given the time frame within which is provides results , it is a great option!

Invisible Braces are the modern alternative to traditional braces.  Whilst traditional braces are the conventional treatment.

Following on from the orthodontic option, you then have the treatments such as Crown and Veneers to correct the teeth.

Without a clinical consultation it is difficult to tell what is the most practical option. but often it is a combination of both treatments that provides the best results.
