What Treatment is Best for Overlapping Teeth?

Friday, February 20th, 2015
Q.

Hey there,

I’m looking into getting my teeth fixed. I have two pushed out canines, which due to them being pushed out, has ultimately left the remaining teeth being pushed to the side. One of my two main teeth is now overlapping the other. The bottom teeth are not great but i am less bothered by those as I am the top teeth. I’m looking for the fastest and most effective way of getting this sorted avoiding standard metal braces across the front of me teeth.
Can you help?

All the best, thanks.

Hi, Dr Hughes. Would It Be Cheaper To Only Straighten Two Teeth With Lingual Braces?

Thursday, October 23rd, 2014
Q.

Hi, Dr Hughes. I hope that you can help me. I was wondering if it would be possible to get lingual braces for only 2 top front teeth which have a gap in them. Would that considerably lower the costs and if so how much would it cost?

Also again, what would the costs be if the bottom incisors (only 2) were to be straightened with lingual braces? Thank you for your reply in advance.

I Have A Missing Canine Tooth. Would A Six Month Smile Solution Be Applicable To My Dental Condition?

Monday, August 18th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Hughes, I would like a smile makeover as I don’t like my front teeth. They stick out and I have a missing lower canine and incisor tooth. I am always self conscious about them and embarrassed. I tend to cover my mouth when I speak. I would like to get braces and wanted information on the type of braces available to me as an adult especially the six month smiles? I would like to know if it is possible to get this treatment with missing teeth.
Thank you.

My Front Two Teeth Come Out Slightly From The Rest Of My Teeth. Are There Any Braces Which Fix With The Front Teeth Only?

Friday, August 1st, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Hughes. I am enquiring about my two front teeth. The issue is that they come slightly forward to the rest of my teeth which gives me a self-conscious smile. I am 20 years old and the older I get the worse I feel about this situation. Is there any sort of brace just for the front teeth rather than the whole mouth? And if so what are you charges? Do you have several clinics or just the 1? I would also love to know more about teeth whitening.

Regards.

10 Years Ago I Had A Full Brace When I Was Younger But As Soon As I Had Them Removed They Started Moving. What Are My Options?

Friday, July 18th, 2014
Q.

Hi Mark,

I am looking to get my teeth fixed, I had a full brace when I was younger but as soon as I had them removed they started moving, my dentist said they would move back. Now it’s 10 years later and I still have one front tooth that sticks out and it makes me really unhappy.

My problem has always been that I haven’t had enough space for my teeth, which is what has happened.

What are my options? I would like to have straight teeth again and hopefully avoiding a full metal brace. Thank you for your time and I look forward to your reply.

I Would Like To Have Two Teeth Pushed Forward. What’s The Best Procedure For This And How Much Does It Cost?

Friday, May 16th, 2014
Q.

Hello Mark, I have 2 teeth that I would like to get pushed forward, one on the top and one directly underneath on the bottom row, on my left side at the front of my mouth. I was wondering what the best procedure would be for this and how much it would cost? How long it will take and all the other information about the treatment? All my other teeth are pretty straight, it’s just these 2 teeth I have a problem with, appearance wise. Thanks.

Hello Mark. I’m 31 And I Have An Overbite Which Hurts When I Close My Mouth. What Treatment Would You Suggest To Correct My Bad Bite?

Thursday, March 20th, 2014
Q.

Hello Mark. I’m 31 and I’ve got both upper and lower arches with teeth inclined inward, not much but enough to have an overbite which causes the jaw going too behind when completely closed and it gets stuck every time I open my mouth. Yes it hurts. And I’ve also come to realise this malocclusion is the cause of my scoliosis. No dentist has ever noticed anything wrong with my teeth, I wouldn’t necessarily call them good dentists. What treatment do you suggest to push them outward? Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

My Tooth Has Returned To It’s Original Sate After Orthodontic Treatment. What Are My Options?

Thursday, December 19th, 2013
Q.

Hi there,

I had braces many years ago but since then one particular tooth has returned to its original state.

I’m 23 now and am wondering what my options are, I guess I’m similar to other people in that the priority is invisible solutions.

My other question is whether the treatments are lessened, quicker, or different if there is one particular problem area as oppose to a mouthful of issues. For example getting lingual braces upon just the small surrounding area of the tooth in question. Any information would be greatly appreciated,

Kind regards.

My Daughter Has Lost All Her Milk Teeth And She Has An Overbite. Would She Get Free Treatment On The NHS?

Tuesday, November 19th, 2013
Q.

Hello! I have a daughter who is 13 years old and she has lost all of her milk teeth. She has an overbite, a cross-bite and her two front canines are very crooked. She also wakes up every morning with a very sore jaw. She is happy to have braces as most of her friends have them. I have had many recommendations from family, other mothers and our family dentists. My daughter really has low self esteem and does not like the way her teeth stick out like vampire fangs, so her confidence will really really benefit from braces. She also likes drama and acting so would like to look good for performances. I wanted to know, would my daughter get free treatment on the NHS?

It may be possible for her to … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

My Curved Bite Is Causing Problems, Can You Recommend A Treatment?

Thursday, July 25th, 2013
Q.

I currently have a fixed appliance on my lingual upper incisors that I have had for at least 10 years. I also have a curved root on one of my central incisors, that seems to be pulling the rest of my incisors up wards, giving my a curved bite, and therefore I am unable to bite properly. I am looking into treatment as I have previously been unsuccessful at my dentist, and am unhappy with not having the full use of my teeth. I am unsure of what treatment I would require, could you please advise me on treatment, and if possible, where would be suitable to go for treatment in Leeds.

Regards.

A.
