Will lingual braces change my facial structure?

Monday, March 28th, 2011
Q.

I am planning to get lingual braces, but I am afraid of the changes my facial features will have as a end result of a two year treatment plan. My orothodontist is telling me that if the treatment is done correctly there will be no change in my facial structure, yet I see many accounts on forums on the internet of lingual brace users with facial changes. I am to have four extractions (two behind bilateral, upper canine teeth, and two behind lower, bilateral canine teeth). I like my youthful face with high cheek bones…will this treatment hallow out my features and make me look older?

I wore my retainer for the recommended time, but my teeth moved, can I have braces again?

Monday, March 28th, 2011
Q.

Hi there,
When I was a teenager I had braces and my teeth were resonably straight after treatment, and I wore my retainer for the recommended time. However, over the years my teeth have pretty much went back to the way they were before, especially the bottom teeth which are perticularly crooked.
I was wondering what options are available to me to straighten my smile as it is really affecting my confidence, I have lost my bite and find my overal oral health is being affected?
Another issue I have always had is that I have a very gummy smile which has always caused me confidence issues but I never thought I could do anything about it. I am just looking for some general advice on what options I have and how much this type of treatment would cost? I am 22 years old.
Many thanks,
