Does age matter for correcting crooked teeth?

Thursday, December 10th, 2009
Q.
I was given a brace (one that you take out at night) when i was younger, and due to the stigma they had back then and the names i was called i took it out most of the time so my 2 fangs stayed where they were resulting in me living with them and crooked teeth till now (im 37). i dont smile as im very self concious of them and would love to have this corrected. is it too late to have this done and what kind of price would i be looking at. thankyou

Can I have teeth straightening treatment when i already have crowns?

Thursday, December 10th, 2009
Q.
HI Dr Solanki I would really like to clean up the look of my mouth. I would love to have my teeth straightened and bleeched. The problem is I have three crowns (2 becuase my enamel didn’t grow on my teeth and one through falling over and cracking it). Is it possible? Also do you know how long the process would take to straighen the teeth? I assume this can be very expensive?

Is it necessary to have veneer for protruding right incisor?

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009
Q.
My upper left incisor is slightly discoloured and worn. The right incisor is slightly protruding. My current dental prectioner is Luton has shaped the tooth and prepped it for a veneer (yesterday). There is sensitivity in the tooth. I’m not enthusiastic about veneers, as he has already veneered the canine tooth to the left of the incisor he has prepped. The cost of venner is £400. He would like to veener the protruding right adjacent incisor, however I have refused to veneer a healthy tooth. So he has suggested contouring. Shouldn’t I just have had the left incisor contoured and not veneered?

It sounds as though you would … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Uneven shaped teeth needs to be analysed for the correct treatment.

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009
Q.
Between the ages of 17 – 19 I had traditional braces. I am now 29 and find that my teeth have relapsed over time as my dentist warned they might. I wear a nightly retainer (which is a replacement if one I had and broke) but my teeth aren’t as they were when I first had my brace removed. The main issues are: a small ‘Madonnaesque’ gap between my front two teeth and the teeth wither side of those are rather short. I was wondering between veneers, invisalign and lumineers what I could consider to correct the problem. I want something that will completely close the gap without too much damage to my teeth which are white and in very good condition.

A.
If the teeth are poorly shaped… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Need to fix my bite and get gum graft, please suggest.

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Q.
I am nearly coming to the end of invisalign treatment and have found that my top front teeth have gone forward and caused me to have a bit of an overbite. Also my lower left canine gum has receded, which must be due to brushing too hard as I don’t have gum disease. Will invisalign refinements be able to push my front teeth back a bit? or is there any other treatment that can fix my bite? Where can I go to get a gum graft, as it is causing me a lot of anguish.

A.
I guess refinement might help … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Can Invisalign fix my underbite as I have edge to edge bite?

Monday, December 7th, 2009
Q.
Hi, im a 21 yr old male that had braces to fix a slight underbite when i was 14-16, for 2 years after i had my braces off i started noticing my perfect bite was becoming more uncomfortable. As of now, im 21 and have an edge to edge bite, my mandible grew, but i dont have an underbite yet, just edge to edge which is very uncomfortable. Im assuming i will have to go back to braces and elastics again, but i was wondering if invisalign will work for my situation? Can I use elastics with invisalign, I read online that invisalign can fix underbites?
