Is it possible to have teeth surgically straightened
Q. Is it possible to have teeth surgically straightened? As in one or two procedures, no long-term processes.
A.
it is not possible to surgically straighten teeth. One way that I create the illusion of straght teeth is to placed veneers on the front surfaces of the teeth. This does require a large amount of tooth removal and can meen the nerves of the teeth need treatment. The ideal treatment would be to have braces ( such as Inman aligner) to move the teeth into a better position before veneering as this would mean minimal preparation of the tooth and greatly reduce the chances of root canal treatment. Inman aligners can often move teeth into a better position within 3 months.
