Should I My Tooth Be Realigned To The Central Line Of My Face?

Friday, June 21st, 2013
Q.

I am 16 years old student residing in Saudi Arabia.
It has been 1yr and 3 months
since i got my braces. I had extraction of 3 teeth ,1 incisor in the upper left jaw and the 2 incisors in the lower jaw.

After filling the gaps, the dentist now says that my front tooth is not in alignment with the central line of my face. He suggests shifting the teeth again. As far as i know, it was in alignment before i got my braces.

My question is, is it necessary that i should get my tooth aligned to the central line of my face??
Will it make any difference if i don’t get it done??

Another thing that keeps bugging me is whether after getting out my braces my right will be straightened for the rest of my life because i have heard many people saying that the teeth returns to its original position after getting off the braces.

What is the best treatment available for centre line correction?

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2012
Q.

My top teeth are not centred so I have my right front in the centre of my smile. I am not a candidate for braces as the problem is too severe. Please could you tell me the best (considering cost) correction method. I am considering veneers and understand they will shave a lot of my teeth away. Would this be a problem?
If I go ahead with this procedures, is it something I could do in stages? This would break the cost down. I could have my teeth whitened to the same shade of the veneers so the alterations are not overly obvious?
I clearly need lots of guidance. I have seen a few dentist and have been quoted £12,000 as a basic cost. This is not an option for me. I really need help.
