My lateral incisors and canine stick are protruded what treatment is available?

Thursday, September 10th, 2009
Q.
Hello, I’m 19 and I was wondering was cosmetic treatments would be suited for myself. My upper lateral incisors and canine teeth are sticking out that makes them look a little raised due to them coming in before my baby canines had been removed. The rest of my upper teeth are aligned correctly however they slightly slant in. Bottom teeth are fine, what treatments are available? Thanks.

What would be the cost of treatment for teeth alignment?

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009
Q.
Hi there, I’m just wondering about how much it will cost to align one of my canines in my mouth. It is only one tooth, but it sort of sticks out further than the others.

Can i get treatment at NHS for invisalign or inman braces?

Saturday, September 5th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I’m 16 and due to get fixed braces on top from the NHS, I already have these on the bottom but I already feel really conscious about them and have been researching on alternatives, such as Damon, Inman and Lingual braces, but as I don’t have a full time job I have no where enough for these, so I was wondering if I would receive any of these from the NHS? Or if there was any other alternative where they would be less visible? Thank You

Saturday, September 5th, 2009
Q.
I would love a ‘mouth makeover’ and have quite a bit of overcrowding. I would like nice white straight teeth and would like to know the work involved and general cost of giving me straight teeth. I also feel my two front and bottom teeth are too long. What can be done to help me? Thanks.

Will drilling away enamel cause any problems in future?

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009
Q.
Hello Dr Caplan. I am due to have my teeth straightened with Invisalign braces. As I don’t have enough room in my mouth my orthodontist is going to drill a tiny amount of enamel away between each tooth. I was worried about this as I always thought damaging the enamel in any way was a bad thing – but he has advised me this won’t cause me any sentitivity and the drilled areas will harden again over time, and actually become harder than before the treatment. I’m very unsure about this – can you please let me know what your opinion is? Thank you.
