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.

Hello I am 56 years old and am about to start orthognathic treatment which will probably take 3 years. In addition to the orthodontic problems that require this treatment, I would also like to improve the look of my teeth, possibly through veneers and teeth whitening. Generally my teeth are looking a bit yellow but my two front upper teeth are particularly bad, in that the lower half of each tooth is much yellower that the upper half and the teeth are slightly ridged. Therefore my question is: If I had veneers on my two front upper teeth would the rest of my teeth be able to be whitened and would it all look natural? My orthodentist has said that any cosmetic work should really be done after the orthnographic procedure is complete. I hope,
