I need my teeth to be whiter and straighter quickly, what should I do?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

I would just like some advice in relation to straightening and whitening my teeth.

I work in the Cosmetic Surgery industry and I am aware that there is no such thing as a “qucik fix”. However I am hoping for one!! My top front 2 teeth are crossed and I would like them straightened, I have looked into invisalign, however, I am not enamoured at wearing the gumsheilds for months on end and wondered if I would be able to create the appearance of straight teeth with veneers?

I am happy with the shape of my teeth its just my smile is slightly flawed, with them being crossed. Would it be wise to whiten once I have straightened? I once had some form of whitening in my lunch hour that was a complete waste of time and money and has left my teeth very sensitive- Beyond White was the product I believe?

I look forward to your response x

Do your teeth have to be strong with old fillings replaced in order to receive Invisalign braces?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

Do your teeth need to be strong and old fillings replaced in order to have invisalign braces? I had a consultaion recently and was told that I would have to pay around £500 to sort out my teeth before being able to have the invisalign brace. I can’t help but wonder whether I’l be taken advantage of. I have heard some bad feedback about this dentist but I am unsure of anywhere else that offers invisalign in Stoke on Trent. Do you know anywhere local to here that offers this service?

My teeth are perfectly straight apart from my two front teeth, what should I expect to hear if I went to see an orthodontist?

Saturday, December 4th, 2010
Q.

the dentist has always told me that i have perfect teeth, but i have a gap in my 2 upper front teeth. all my other teeth are perfectly straight. they kind of lean outwards from the frenum, like its more closed at the top then bottum. its about a 1.5-2mm gap. i plan on seeing a orthodontist soon but im wondering what i will most likely hear?

Is there some other solution other than braces to fix my small and also large teeth gaps?

Monday, November 29th, 2010
Q.

I have a very small gap in my front teeth, and a larger gap between the front tooth and the lateral incisor. My teeth are straight and are healthy, it’s just that there are these gaps between them. I feel too old for braces as next year I’ll be going to university and really wouldn’t appreciate having braces at this stage in my life. Is there any other possible solutions to close the gaps? Even just the larger gap between the central incisor and the lateral incisor? Thank-you.

Should I get invisalign braces or a six month smile program?

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010
Q.

Hi, I am 24 years old. I have been looking into having my teeth straightened for some time now. I am really unhappy with the appearance of my smile. I have had a consultation with an orthodontist and following x-rays and impressions I have been told that I have over crowding on both upper and lower teeth, my two front top teeth stick out almost 7mm more than my bottom front teeth so I am self conscious of this. I have a gap where one of my molars has been removed and my dentist said that this would cause a problem with invisalign braces. He advised that I have an implant after the orthodontic treatment. I was quoted between £5000-£6000 for invisalign or £2500 for fixed braces with clear brackets and told that they would be fixed for 12-18 months. As I am a teacher I am keen to look into the least noticeable options. Would you recommend the six month smile program? Ho much would it cost in the UK? I live near Cardiff. Thank you very much.
