my partner’s front teeth are twisted and look awful

Q. Hi, my partner’s front teeth are twisted and look awful. what could be done to give him a straight good looking smile? thanks

A. He has 2 options
1) Braces, there are a few options. He could have white tracks, invisalign or braces put on the back of his teeth so that they are not seen from the front. Brace treatment can last up to 18 months to 2 years. He would need to go and see an orthodontist.

2) veneers, these are porcelain covers that are placed on the teeth. The teeth are shaved down so that the teeth are in the correct position to place the veneers. The amount of tooth structure removed is related to the amount of crowding that is present.

The best thing to do would be to have a consultation with a cosmetic dentist and an orthodontist so that he knows all of the options and he can make an informed decision
Kind Regards
