Tuesday, October 27th, 2009
Q.

Is there any possibility to extract as many teeth to hv avg smile?

Friday, October 23rd, 2009
Q.
As an early teen I had chipped the top, front 6 of my teeth rollerblading. They felt loose for a while and had always bothered me the way they healed. It bothers me how my front teeth are displayed slightly misaligned to my left and with an overbite as well. The Army Dentist insisted on putting veneers over them. That never did anything to fix the misalignment problem of the front two top teeth being aligned under my nose. It seems the injury I must have suffered as a kid made the teeth grow in this way after they healed. I am disappointed and finished with the idea of trying to salvage my smile at this point in my life. I am wondering if you may be able to let me know if there is a possibility that there is a Dentist out there that would extract my front, top 6 teeth or as many as needed to have an average looking smile that is aligned under my nose. Thanks very much

Is using elastic bands normal treatment for an overbite?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
Q.
My daughter is 16 and has some mild crowding in the upper and lower arches, she also has a deep anterior bite and a slightly untidy posterior bite on the left side. She has been told that this can be corrected with Invisalign but she would also have to use elastic bands which would be anchored with small metal hooks – can you tell me is this normal treatment for an overbite with Invisalign? She is devastated that Invisalign won’t be so invisible after all. Your reply would be much appreciated.
