Hi, my 2 front teeth stick out slightly because I sucked a dummy till I was 16. I’m 19 now and I’m doing modelling but I’m really insecure about my smile. Is there any other way I can have them 2 teeth straightened without having braces.? I thought about invisible braces but are they really necessary just for 2 teeth? thank you.
my daughter has to have two top teeth removed(the ones next to the pointed ones) before she has her brace fixed i am concerned that she will be left with gaps when she smiles
hi i was wondering what i could do to fix my tooth problem. my teeth are straight on the bottom with no gaps but on the top my teeth are small with gaps how could i fix this and how much am i looking at to do it.
i have a veneer on my front tooth, is it still possible to get braces to help with my gaps even if i have the veneer? i wasn’t sure if the braces would ruin or brake it.
My son had both top and bottom set of braces fitted 3 days ago and much to my shock, he was also fitted with a device that looks like a cage in the roof of his mouth. We weren’t advised by his dentist prior to the treatment that this would be fitted and now my son is traumatised as he cannot eat or talk properly with it fitted. He wants it removing. His dentist told us it was a standard piece of kit when having a brace fitted but as he did not prior advise of this, as he fitted something that wasn’t necessary?
Im 17 and my top two canine teeth are really high up and are really out of line with my other teeth(they’re straight but just a lot further forward than the others).I need braces but my teeth don’t fit the NHS funding requirements which means i would have to go private(up to £3000),which my parents can’t afford.Is there any cheaper way of fixing my teeth?They’re so bad and they affect my confidence to the point where even my parents say i never smile.
My daughter would like a social six brace just for the three months, she is getting abit distressed about it all but i am just abit worried about the cost can it be paid in instalments and much does it cost?
Hello Dr. Verma,
I used to wear metal permanent braces about 13 years ago. My bottom teeth are fine but my front right tooth has moved forward over the years and the tooth next to it moving behind it. i read about the inman aligner and thought this could perhaps be a solution. In the last couple of years i have had a wisdom tooth come through on that side and wondered whether you think this would stop me being able to have that type of treatment (the wisdom tooth doesn’t cause any problems).
i appreciate your help and time.
kind regards,
I am 29yr old male. I have had braces for 1 yr now on lower teeth with 1 extraction-second molar on my left. This was to correct and straighten my teeth. I am noticing a thinning of my face – making it look narrow. Everyone keeps saying ‘you have lost weight’ but I have not. My ortho says it cannot be braces, as only jaw surgery can change my jawline. I am very worried. Is he right? What can I do? He is moving my back teeth to cover the gap from the extraction. Thank you.
Dear Dr. Butt,
I would like your advice. I wore braces for 2 years 6 years ago, and I stopped wearing my retainers. Because of this, my beautiful straight teeth gave way slightly to the problem I had before braces.
My top 2 front teeth have protruded out again, a bit like a rabbit, and the 2 incisors on either side of them have moved forward a bit too (all on the top jaw). I have had consultations from orthodontists and I am asking you as well.
Will the Inman Aligner align my top 2 teeth with the rest of my top teeth giving me a straight top jaw again? Will it make my teeth straight again?
Kind regards,
