What can be done about teeth that have decayed after wearing braces?

Friday, March 12th, 2010
Q.
Good Afternoon I was wondering if you was able to help me when I was younger I had a brace on my teeth about a month before the brace was due to come off I went travelling for just over a year and kept the brace on the whole time I was away. This was about 5 years ago I finally had the brace removed but my teeth on my lower jaw are very badly decayed I have had to have two removed, and two towards the back are now rotten. I am now worried about my front teeth. My upper jaw not perfect but in a much better condition. I am worried about going back to the dentist because of the bad way my teeth are in. But I have to get something sorted because I am getting married in October and I would like my teeth to be in a better condition. I do not have a dentist at the moment but was wondering if you could help. Hope to hear from you soon Barry,
