I have a narrow smile, what’s the cheapest option availble to fix this?

Monday, June 7th, 2010
Q.
I had crowded teeth when i was at school and had a 2 year brace to fix them. I went through a lot of pain but in the end it was worth it. Im now 37 and over the years my teeth have crossed over at the front again, although not as bad as when i was younger, and my teeth are very close together. I can just about fit dental floss between them! If i bit a piece of wood, i could make arrow heads. that is the shape of my bite. I cannot get a brace on the NHS which i think is unfair considering i have already had brace. I dont expect a ‘hollywood smile’ but i do want a wider smile where my teeth are not crossed over at the front. When i smile you can see my two front teeth crossed and the ones beside them are already turned inwards to follow the rest of the teeth. I have a narrow smile. What would you suggest? The cheapest easiest option please. Thank you,

Questions regarding braces and overlapping teeth..

Friday, June 4th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I had braces when i was in high school. they were on for 18 months i think. the top ones were removed first and slowly i started noticing an overlap on my front teeth. In 2008 i had the overlapped tooth filed a little so it wouldn’t look so out of place. have a few questions: (1) will the filing down of my tooth affect the end result should i wish to have my overlap straightened? (2) what would be the most cost effective yet permanent solution which is not obvious? (3) I have fixed retainers on the back of my bottom front teeth (from high school days), are they meant to be there for life?,
