Thursday, April 2nd, 2009
Q.

I’m considering invisalign (I’m early 40’s and have a job where I meet lots of people) or veneers. I am convinced that my teeth are still moving as the they have got much worse over the years. If I have veneers can my teeth still move and if so, how does the affect the veneer.

Will braces sort out crooked teeth?

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009
Q.
I’ll be turning 15 very soon. I have crooked teeth for which I’m currently wearing ceramic braces.My orthodontic treatment was done in India. So my orthodontist lives there. A tooth in my lower jaw looks like as though it hasn’t grown completely. It looks shorter than the remaining teeth in the jaw. My braces will be removed after a year. The teeth in that jaw are crowded. (1)Will that tooth ever look like the remaining teeth? (2)Will my crooked teeth get better? If so, how do crooked teeth actually separate out?

I have known for a while I will need braces

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008
Q.
Hello, I am 17 years old, and I have known for a while I will need braces. i go to an NHS orthodontist and have a removable brace. However, I have been told I need to have four teeth out. This is a big problem for me because I am terrified of needles and having the teeth pulled out. I have tried to have the teeth pulled out four times, twice under sedation. I would like to know if there any braces which I could have which would not need any teeth pulling out, as I would love to have straight teeth. Thank You.

I’m 21 years old and I definitely dont want any braces

Friday, November 28th, 2008
Q.
Hey, I’m 21 years old and I definitely dont want any braces. But, I have this one tooth between my incisor and canine which is completely crooked. It looks like I have a gap in my top half set, and then when you look close enough there is a tooth sitting at a 45 degree angle between two other teeth. Do you think if I had my widsom tooth in the top right corner of my mouth removed, my crooked tooth would straighten up? And if so, how long would it take? Thanks
