my teeth stick out due to me sucking my thumb when i was younger

Q. Hello, i’ve been looking into cosmetic options to have my teeth straightened. When i was younger i sucked my thumb and this has resulted in my top two front teeth sticking out and also twisting inwards toward each other slightly. My bottom front teeth go back and are twisted slightly. This also resulted in an overbite. I am pretty squeamish and concerned what various procedures involve. I need to also take into consideration the financial implications of whichever option i choose as like many people i can’t magic a few grand out of my pocket (as ace as that would be). Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

A. Hi

My advice would be to have consultation, to allow an examination of the teeth , which will enable to the dentist to offer various options. Of course your budget would have to be taken into considration. It is impossible for me to say what these options are without looking at the mouth.

Best of luck.
