A. There are definately options for you daughter. I understand that at 17, noticeable braces are not the best option. Currently on the market are invisable braces-but the best option is to see a private orthodontist to discuss this. I would be more than happy to have a consultation with you and discuss what my own opinions are. It sounds as though the movement of one of the teeth may be tricky- so fixed appliance would be the preferrable option. The orthodontic appliance I was mentioning has the same brackets and wires as a conventional fixed appliance, however they are clear in colour. This will be less noticeable and your daughter I’m sure will be much happier!
I would definately advise against having the canine tooth removed- as this will create a very unsymmetrical appearance- and your daughter will more than likely want to rectify this in a few years with crowns/veneers. To prevent this, Orthodontics is the answer. In this case, it may take a little longer depending on the tooth position, but until I can see that, I cannot entirely say for sure howe long it will take.
Again, I would be more than happy to offer my opinion and refer your daughter to a reputable orthodontist.
