Would the Inman aligner or a six-month smile treatment be suitable for my teeth?

Monday, October 4th, 2010
Q.
Hi, My two upper front teeth point out and are starting to overlap and the teeth next to them are tucked behind them. Do you think 6 month smiles or The Inman aligner would work for me? I have looked at lots of before and after photo’s and most of the examples aren’t as bad as my teeth! The nearest dentists that offer these treatments are a long drive away and charge huge consultation fees so I would like to have an idea of whether these treatments are viable before i take the plunge! Thank you,
A.
