I regret not having braces when I was 16 and now that I am an adult I’m not sure what is my best option. Orthodonics or veneers?

Wednesday, March 30th, 2011
Q.

When i was 16 i was offered a brace which i, stupidy, declined and now i am regretting it as when i recently went to the dentist to ask about having a bace put on she informed me that my teeth had set in place and were very strong so the likely-hood of my teeth staying in place when the brace was taken off was very small. I am very very concious of my teeth being crooked (even though i have been assured many times that they are “not that bad”) and rarely smile with my teeth on show. I have been looking into veneers as these seem like the best option for me. from what i have told you would you say that veneers would be the route i should take? and how much would i be looking at paying for them? Thank you.

My teeth are already straight after 6 months of brace treatment, will they need to stay on for the full 2 years?

Q.

My orthodntist does not speak english very well so i have trouble asking him questions. I had braces put on 6 months ago to correct 2 eye teeth that protruded slightly ( i was too self conscious of them) they have been straight for 2 months now – so will i need to have them on for the full 2 years? what is the least time frame i could hope for?

Is it true that orthodontic treatment can not be used if there is bone loss due to a gap (8mm) and in order to close the gap bone graft needs to be performed first?

I have a missing tooth, will the gap eventually close or should I have something done?

Friday, March 25th, 2011
Q.

I have one tooth missing in the front at the bottom. My teeth are all crooked and need space between them. I feel that eventually the space will close up since the actual space is not that of a full normal teeth, it is the space created form the removal of a crooked tooth. Do u think that it is possible over time(has been 2 years already) that the space will close up if not, then what can I do besides an implant to get rid of the space.
