Hello, I was wondering I’m getting braces in May and im really scared . They might take my teeth out. i have a tooth above my canine tooth . will the dentist take out my canine tooth. And also what teeth do you need to get taken out and why? thanks reply soon . before may
Dear Dr Moore,
I was just wondering if treatments like the Inman Aligner are applicable when you’ve still got baby teeth? I had a small operation a few years ago to remove an adult canine which never came through; consequently I’ve still got the original baby tooth sat in its place. I’m assuming I’d have to have that removed but do you think they would they be able to close the gap or put in a bridge or something?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I have a gap in my front teeth that has bothered me for ages, but when I’ve asked my dentist about whether they could close the gap they said it would leave me with a bigger gap somewhere else as I am also missing my 2nd set of incisors, and the gap in my front teeth stop me from having gaps there. I’m only 19 so really just want to know if it would be viable to give me normal looking teeth, or wether I am just clutching at straws.
-Thanks & Kind Regards.
my daughter had a fixed brace on her upper teeth 2 months ago. After todays visit an authodentist (we seem to see a different one each time) mentioned she has an overbite and should have had another type of removal brace fitted first. It has been suggested that braces on my daughters botom teeth need to be fitted but the authodentist did admit that there was nothing wrong with her bottom set. What happens now? My daughter is not happy and to be frak i’m rather brassed off too!
When i was younger I had my front tooth knocked out after a cap and a root canal I was eventually given a denture. When I was old enough to have braces I had braces to close the gap in the front and to use my second tooth (lateral incisor) as a front tooth and put a crown on it.
11 years later the crown has decreased in size, the tooth has drifted and it’s a totally different shape to my other tooth so now I have a big gap in the middle, it’s too big for 1 tooth alone but not big enough for 2 teeth. The prepared tooth under the crown has also gone blackish. what would you suggest would be the best option for me to get a nice gap free smile back!
Hi, I have noticed over the last month or two that my top teeth are now sitting over my bottom ones and have now started pushing the bottom teeth back on a slant. To make my teeth meet I feel I have to pull the top of my jaw in and the bottom part out, its uncomftable and the teeth are starting to look noticeably changed and smiling is not comftable or easy. Can you tell me what has happened.
Many Thanks.
how can i close my gap in my tooth
im 17, and dont have £1000-£8000 to spend on straightening my teeth. would i be able to take a loan out at my age to pay for my teeth? thankyou
Hello, i have a good set of teeth, but my left lateral incisor is slightly turned outwards but less than 1mm. Although its very small my orthodontist would not fit me a brace to correct it. I was wondering if i could get it straightened with another procedure? Could i send an image to explain further? Many thanks.
