My Protruding Teeth Have Always Been Something That Have Caused Me To Have A Lack Of Confidence. How Would I Fix This?

Q.

Hello Mark. My two upper canine teeth protrude quite a lot and have done since I was very young. I was wondering if this can be corrected and if so, how? There are large gaps behind the teeth but overcrowding means the gap isn’t big enough and as a result they stick out in front of my other teeth. Would they be removed or would a brace be the best option? I’m 35 years old and this is has always been something that caused me to have a lack of confidence. Thank you, I look forward to your reply.

Would you recommend orthofill bands for the gaps in my teeth?

Q.

Would you recommend orthofill bands on diastema ? If not what type of braces would be best ? I have general spacing between the front six upper teeth. (all the gaps are around three mm’s apart) .My teeth is also pretty straight on the top and the bottom .Would I need to have braces on my lower ones,if though they do not need it( as I have herd that if you cause movement on your top,you will need to adjust the bottom too).
Thank you !
