i have a big gap in between my front teeth can i have veneers for them or any other options

Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Q.
Hi, i’m 17 and have a big gap in between my front two teeth. A year or two ago, my dentist offered me braces, but i would have to have had like 6 teeth removed, an opperation on my gum to take out a tooth growing behind another tooth and wear braces for 5 year, which at the time, the gap wasn’t that noticable, but over time it’s got worse. My mum said i should speak to my dentist about getting veneers for them. i just wondered if it was possible, or any other options apart from braces there are?

do you have any cheaper option other than invisalign for my huge gaps in my teeth

Sunday, May 17th, 2009
Q.
I am a 27 year old female. I have regular dental check-ups and really do try look after my teeth. However as a child, 2 milk teeth never came out as they weren’t replaced by adult teeth. So I still have them.(Quite impressive I’ve been told, I lived on a farm and drank loads of milk could be the reason I still have them) They are pretty healthy although one has now got a little cavity. The reason they have never come out is because I have bi-lateral canines set in my upper gums pushing ever so slightly on my front teeth roots. I have had advice from my dentist that they can cause cysts and need to be removed, but this leaves me with two gaps. A possible suggestion has been ‘Invisalign’ to pull my teeth from the back forward filling the gaps and straightening my teeth. However this costs about £4500 which is very expensive.Do you have any suggestions for me that are either cheaper and doesn’t leave me with huge gaps on my wedding day. Kind Regards
