I Would Like My Two Front Teeth Corrected Before I Get Married. What Type Of Aligner Would Work For This?

Thursday, March 20th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Hughes, I need to correct my two front teeth a little as they are slightly upward. I consulted the doctor and he said I need to undergo surgery of my lower jaw but as I am getting married toward the end of the year. I need something like a fast working aligner as one private doctor suggested to me. So if you could kindly help me, and suggest to me the cheapest procedure to work before my marriage. Ideally I would like the treatment to take 6-7 months. I hope you can help and I look forward to your reply.

I Have Gaps But All Of My Front Teeth Are Straight. Would Simpli5 Be An Option? Or Would Invisalign Be More Suitable?

Friday, March 14th, 2014
Q.

Hi Andrew. I’ve had normal braces before through the NHS and they came off early as they kept braking all the time. I have gaps at the front but my teeth are all straight. Would Simpli5 be an option? Or would Invisalign be more suitable? If Simpli5 were suitable and they were on for 3 months for example how much would this cost? Or would I need to see a consultant? I hope to hear back from you, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I Have Been Offered Two Different Brace Treatment Types And I’m Not Sure Which To Choose?

Wednesday, March 5th, 2014
Q.

Hi. I’m getting invisible braces soon and the dentist has offered 2 types. One is the fast braces system and the other involves tooth removal & this is the one I’m not sure of & would like your opinion on please. I had a canine removed years ago (it was above the gum & next 2 teeth joined so dentist just removed it) the dentist doing my braces wants to remove the other canine as he’s saying I now have an extra tooth & it won’t look symmetrical. I’m not sure I want this though as it’s a perfectly healthy tooth & I don’t want to be left with big gaps. Do you think this sounds right? I hope you can help me by offering some advice. Thank you.

I Like The Sound Of Invisible Braces As I Would Be Self-Conscious About How I Looked With Normal Ones. How Much Do They Cost?

Monday, February 17th, 2014
Q.

Hi, I’ve just been looking up about the ‘6 month smile’ treatment and wanted to know a little more information, such as how they look, can you see much? Also cost, as I don’t have a lot of money? I’m 21 years old and I’m unhappy about how my teeth look. They’re really overcrowded. I wouldn’t consider a brace any more, as I would be self-conscious about how it looked to others, seeing as I’m older now. I liked the sound of not being able to see anything in my mouth with the 6 month smile. If you could get back that would be great with any information that would be great, thanks.

I’ve Been Considering Veneers For Ages Now. Would They Help Fix My Bucked Teeth?

Thursday, December 12th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Moore. I’m 19 years old and I have been considering veneers for ages now. My teeth are straight but a bit bucked, they have small gaps but have stopped growing. When I bite I can rub the bottom of my teeth with my jaw clenched as my top half has moulding round my thumb as I used to suck my thumb when I was little. I also have fangs on both the bottom and the top and I hate them. I just never smile. I just wanted to know what would the price be for 12 teeth as I would rather this than braces.

Thanks.

I’ve Been Quoted £2,600 For Invisible Braces. Would That Cost Be About Right?

Tuesday, November 12th, 2013
Q.

Hello. I would like one of my lower front teeth to go back in line with the rest as it is indented. I have been told that I could wear an invisible brace (removable) for 6 month at a cost of £2,600. Would that cost be about right? Also, my husband has the same problem except his problem tooth is on the top set of teeth.  His tooth has protruded slightly more than usual over the last couple of months and so he too has been told that an invisible brace could be fitted and would solve the problem in 6 months at a cost of £2,600. Please give some advice. Thank you, Dr Shaffie.

From my viewing my front teeth on one upper set is slightly awry, as well as the one next to it.
And on the lower set there also three teeth that doesnt seem to be in the right positions.

Are Quick Fix Invisible Braces The Way To Go For Me?

Friday, April 12th, 2013
Q.

I have recently had a consultation for a clear brace (similar to invisalign but it is the dental practices’ own ‘in house’ version) which focuses on aligning the front x6 teeth. I was told it would work within 22 weeks, and requires the teeth to be polished with an abrasive floss to shave a minimal amount from the teeth in order to create space for the teeth to move. My two front teeth are crossing over slightly which is the reason I would like the brace.

My concern is whether such speedy treatment poses any risks? As a teenager I had very extensive orthdontic treatment & am just very wary of this seemingly quick fix. In your opinion do you think there will be long term issues with this type of treatment – will the enamel be affected if the teeth are ‘shaved’, leaving me with sensitive teeth? And are the teeth not too brittle to be moved so quickly? (I am 30 years old). It sounds similar to invisalign but not as trustworthy.
Please advise, thank you

Can I Afford Invisible Braces On Job Seekers Allowance?

Wednesday, February 6th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr. Patel, I am 20 years old and receiving income based job seekers allowance . If I was to get invisible braces, how much would that cost? I’ve had braces before when I was at school and they were free of charge. However, my wisdom teeth have come out and I’ve been told from my dentist that I’ll have to have them removed due to not enough room. So therefore, because of my wisdom teeth growing, they’ve pushed the rest of my teeth slight forward, so I’m thinking of getting braces again so I can have straight teeth. Anything you can suggest will be helpful, thanks in advance

I am 32 years old and need an ‘invisible’ brace, can you recommend one?

Friday, April 27th, 2012
Q.

do lingual braces work for strong
bottom teeth, where invisalign would not. it has been recommended to use fixed braces on the front but working in public relations i am not happy with this option, therefore i am happy to try lingual braces. My bottom teeth require improving and my bite is not good. I do have strong teeth but as a 32 year old i am not happy to go around with an obvious brace. i am receiving very contradictory advice from various orthodontists and need clarification. i was seen by a very experienced orthodontist yesterday who didnt feel that lingual braces were very good and that tore up your tongue. I know he is a very good orthodontist and has had great success with traditional fixed braces but he didnt seem to understand my problem. I know he treats a lot of children and to be honest they are normally quite happy to have a traditional front brace. any feedback would be gratefully appreciated.
