My tooth keeps breaking. Do I have te get dentures and gan it be done cheaply?

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Q.

I have a several teeth missing at the side, broken when a tooth was removed and the upper front four are crowned. They are big, ugly and uneven. The biggest problem is one of the upper front incisors, it has a post in the root, and has been glued back four times now, it has just come loose again. My dentist has about given up and says the root is fractured, my only option is dentures. I can’t afford huge amounts for more work, but I do have dental insurance that works with NHS funding. Is there anything that can be done?

Will the Inman Aligner work for my crooked teeth and underbite?

Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010
Q.

Hello,

I have a question regarding Inman aligners.

I had an accident when I was younger that pushed my four front upper teeth, up into the gum and backwards. I had a brace to push these teeth forward however my teeth have been retracting over the last few years and I now have a slight overlap and crooked smile. I also have an underbite resulting in a gap of about 2 or 3mm between my top and bottom teeth.

Could an Inman aligner push my four front teeth forward to close the gap as well as straighten my teeth? Or would the underbite cause issues?

Thanks for any and all help.
