I just got braces today and after a few hours there was a mild tingling sensation in my teeth. It went away after a few minutes but now it is back and as I type this it is starting to hurt. Is that normal?

Can my daughter switch to a private orthodontist despite already having a lower brace fitted on the NHS?

Thursday, January 6th, 2011
Q.

My 15 year old daughter has just had a metal brace fitted to her lower teeth on the NHS and is due to have one fitted to her upper teeth in January. Having seen the lower one, I would like the top one to be the ceramic tooth coloured type. Can I still now switch to private treatment to have this done?

Do braces in the UK cost £200-300?

Thursday, January 6th, 2011
Q.

Hello.

Im 21 and a HE student, I was thinking of getting braces for sure in the next year or so. I have found that from my own dentist it may cost considerbaly upto 2-300 pounds. I was astonished with this answer. Is this true? I mean I only have the fromt two teeth over one another. And also what if I went to another country – like asia – Pakistan, as I am going next year right, would be alot cheaper I suppose. Whats your knowledge sir? and advice.

My teeth have been moved by my fixed retainer, but my orthodontist disagrees, what can I do?

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011
Q.

I’ve been wearing essix retainers for six months since having my brace removed and no problems. Four days ago I had 2 thin stainless steel bonded retainers fixed to both both and top teeth. Within two days my top teeth had moved dramatically. Trouble is my orthodontist is adamant that they havn’t moved. I can see and feel the difference. What on earth can I do since he’s thrown away my essix retainers? He has since made me new essix retainers to fit over the bonded retainers but that’s not going to get them back to the original position. I feel very fed up as I’ve paid £3800 for this.
