Braces have left back a traces can it be corrected?

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009
Q.
Hi I had braces when I was about 11 years old and at that time braces was not such a common thing like today. However,when I took off my braces, it left the trace of the braces of my front two teeth and I have practically been living with that for the past 8 years. I know it’s because of decalsification of the enamel or something like that. So basically you can see the brackets of the braces on the front too teeth and its stands out because it is a different whitish color. Can I do anything to get rid of this? It does lower my self esteem in a way and I wish my orthodontist had warned me about it at that time so I would have taken extra precaution. I just want to smile with confidence. I also have some a problem with some of my teeth being yellow. Is there anything that can be done?

A.

Not wearing retainers has caused the front teeth to move forward

Monday, November 9th, 2009
Q.
Dear Rob, I am a 17 year old who used to wear braces about 2 years back.I wore retainers for a year (day and night) but after that I stopped wearing it. Recently I noticed my wisdom tooth starting to grow and I feel my front two teeth have come forward a bit. Is this possible? The rest of my teeth are strait but the front two teeth are a bit forward-unlike how it was before. How do I push it back again? Do I need braces? If so do I have to take off teeth again to move it back?

Braces or Inman aligner to push forward my canine tooth?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
I’m looking to get braces, and would much prefer the Inman Aligner done. However, I’m not sure if i’m a likely candidate for the treatment. A baby canine tooth that I should have had removed 10 years ago, has forced the adult canine tooth to grow underneath it, pushing it to the inside of my upper gum. After having that baby canine tooth taken out, now i would like for the adult canine tooth to be put in it’s right place on my upper gum via orthodontic treatment. Having seen the prices, of normal traditional braces extending between £2000 and £3000, i saw that not only were Inman Aligners cheaper, but they also carried out the treatment in a significantly shorter space of time. So my question is, is it possible to have that canine tooth pushed forward, towards the center of my gum, or will I have to settle for traditional braces? (Can the Inman Aligner be used to treat the canine teeth as well, or just the 4 incisors

A.
I don’t think the Inman will w… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
