My two front teeth stick out a little do I need braces
Q. My teeth are straight….but my two front teeth are just sitting over my others, just a little….do i have to get braces for that? and from the side it looks like they are turnin into each other.
A. There are a few options, one is braces, the second is veneers to correct the situation. the first option is ideal as this does not then need the teeth to be drilled in anyway to produce the desired outcome but will take some time to achieve. the second option of the veneers will be more instantaneous however will require the teeth to be prepared and veneer do not last forever so will need to be maintained and replaced periodically every 10-15 years on average. hope this is helpful.
Hi.
I had braces when I was 12 years old for 6 months and I wore my retainer for a few months. My dentist said that I could throw away my retainer after a few months. A few years later my teeth started moving out of place. I went for another dental visit to see if I needed braces again because I have an overbite and my front teeth look like they stick out.
My dentist thought I wanted braces for cosmetic reasons so she did not allow me to have braces with the NHS. I wanted braces because my teeth have moved and I do not have a normal bite. It does not feel right when I eat because I can’t bite properly into food with my front teeth. I don’t like having an overbite. When I smile my teeth are stretch my lower lip and my lips are always dry. I am now 20 years old and I’m not sure if I should get braces. How much would it cost and what type would I need to have. I have one tooth at the bottom which has moved out of place but all my teeth are generally straight. My front two top teeth however are sticking out. Pleas help, I feel like it’s lowering my confidence also.
Sharon.
