I think I probably need a palatial expander and my lower jaw moved forward because my overjet is around 1 1/2 centimetres. I’m 41. Any approximate idea on price and weather widening the upper jaw causes your nose to widen as well?
I am keen to learn more about appliances such as expanders or a headgear. I do not think Iactually need them but am interested in orthodontics and would love to experience having such an appliance. I was wondering if there is a possibilityof having something installed for the short term without causing considerable damage to my treatment? Many Thanks for your help and I look forward tohearing from
Hello, I am interested in a 6-month smile treatment to fix some upper and lower misalignment as well as an overbite. Do you do this type of treatmentwith lingual braces? Could I email you some pictures and scanned x-rays forinitial feedback? (i.e. to know whether or not this treatment would work for me…). Many thanks,
I am not very good with dentists and if Im honest haven’t been for a longtime and need a bit of work doing no doubt but i would like to have what ever work done. my teeth white and straight as possible Im not sure you can do much with my top set but my bottom set are starting to get a bit misaligned. So my question is could i get a consult of what exactly i would need and how much it would cost. Also if you do any deals or payment plans at all.Many thanks

You will need a referral to the local oral surgery department from your dentist to see if it can still be done on the NHS
Hello, I’m interested in getting the Six month smile braces. I have an over bite and two teeth that stands out from the rest of my teeth on the bottom layer of my mouth. Roughly, I’d like to know the average amount that I would have to paid? Also, is there any chance that the 6 month smile will not work on my teeth? I have two more questions. What are a good list of affordable Dental insurance plans that will help co pay on braces? Lastly, I am considering whitening my teeth as well. Will this affect the wear of 6 month smile braces? Should I get my teeth whitened before or after my braces? Thanks in advance!
