Q.
Hi dr, i had fixed braces for 18months when i was 12 i wore the retainer as instructed and now im 26 they are back how they were. due to my age my dentist informed me i would not be eligable for nhs treatment for braces as i was over 18. i cant afford to pay privatly , my front 2 cross over slightly but its the next 2 cross over front 2 and one sticks right out of my lips when i close my mouth. the rest arent very straight but it just the front ones which bother me. i try not to smile if possible because of this and i want to know is there no way for me to get this through the nhs or can i get a home kit to do it myself i know you wouldnt reccommend for me to attempt it myself but it has got to that stage where i would. please help thanks x

Is the six months smiles a good treatment for mild crowding

Monday, August 10th, 2009
Q.
Hello, i am interested in the six month braces, but have a few questions i have mild crowding in my upper front teeth and my bottom two front teeth overlap by about 2mm so one of them is at a slight angle behind the other the rest of my bottom teeth have just mild crowding with no rotation, my bite is also good, i understand that without photo’s and xrays you can not give me a definitive answer as to if i would be suitable for this type of ortho, but do you think i may be able to have this treatment.I live in the midlands and would be interested in coming to your practice for an assesment, in your opinion is the six month ortho a good solid treatment because i can’t find as much info on it as other treatments and does it really average just six months to complete. Thanks in advance.
