Q. I had braces when i was 14 for 2 years, and had lovely straight teeth after that. Few years later my upper front teeth started protruding again, and i had braces again. I am now due to have them taken off, but the front two teeth are still visibly protruding. I have been told that nothing can be done as asian jaws are like that, and my teeth cannot be further straightened. Is this true? Should i seek a second opinion? What confuses me is that if that asian jaw theory is correct, my first set of braces would not have given me straight teeth.,
