How can front tooth gap be rectified?
Thursday, March 4th, 2010Can braces help with TMJ issue?
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Q.
I had braces as a child though I have not been wearing a retainer throughout the years because I was unaware that I needed to do so. Subsequently, my teeth have been shifting back to the original position. Additionally, I have been grinding my teeth at night and my jaw is slightly out of alignment as well. My question is whether or not braces will be able to fix not only my dental issue but the TMJ issue as well? Thank you in advance for your answer. Truly,

What can be done about one crooked tooth?
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Q.
I have a back tooth (the one that is next to my wisdom teeth that is crooked. I had the wisdom tooth(this was the tooth behind it) and the tooth in front of it removed because of decay so now that tooth has become crooked. Is there a way to straight that one tooth? I’m preparing to get a bridge placed there but that tooth must be straightened first. My dentist said that I could have it filed down or that I could go to the ortho and get braces. Would I need a full set of braces just for the one tooth?,

Why are upper braces teeth affecting lower teeth?
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Q.
I have recently just got braces but i have only got the top brace not the bottom. My othurdontist didn’t put the bottom brace on because he is worried that it may try to grow in front of my top jaw as it is not level. For the last 2 days, it feels like my bottom jaw is trying to grow in front of my top jaw and it is now causing me discomfort, is this normal?,

Wisdom teeth ruined results of previous braces but what can be done?
Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010Q.
Hi as a teenager, i had braces (train tracks) and after i was finished i was given a retainer to secure my teeth in the correct position. I wore them at night as i was asked for a few months to a year gradually wearing them less. My teeth were straight and i felt no need to wear the retainer no more. Im 20 and about a year ago my my top 2 wisdom teeth came through. as they came through i expireinced no problem. But since then i have noticed that my top teeth on one side have become crooked only slightly and my retainer didnt fit so i couldnt correct the problem. what im worried about is the fact that to this day i still feel them moving and my teeth are now becoming way out of alignment and my bite has become a grinding bite. What do i do, i dnt really want to have braces again and am scared to ask the dentist becuase it will cost so much money which as a student i cant afford. Im just annoyed that it took along time to get my teeth straight and now with in a year they are crooked again. I was never warned of my wisdom teeth being a problem which is why i never took action or cantacted my orthodontist when they came through. Are there any other options that can correct the alignment like a slip on brace. one that is permenent of visiable,

Can toothy smile be fixed?
Monday, March 1st, 2010Q.
I have a very toothy smile. It has always bothered me and now more than ever it is really making me feel self consciuos. I think the problem is that my front 4-6 teeth are quite long and therefore make my smile look very toothy. is there anything than can be done for this and what would the procedure cost.,
