I really really hate my teeth

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hello there:) I’m a 16 year old girly, and I really really hate my teeth! Everyone tells me there’s nothing wrong with them and to be honest there isn’t any major problems! I just want them to look perfect! For me! Here’s an idea of how they look:- / < My top teeth slightly stick out \ < & this is the bottom row. I just want both rows pushed back, straight, but the thing is i really don’t want any normal braces! My hearts set on lingual. As my teeth stick out having normal braces would look flaming rediculous! Could i have lingual braces? All my teeth are together with no gaps apart from the front two, so would having teeth removed be an issue? Im honestly not fussed about the price! but i really wan’t lingual and no other, not even invisalign it’l just look silly. The un-noticable the better! As i said i’m 16 but do i have to pay the whole amount straight away, could i not pay a fee over a period of time as of my circumstances? Sorry if i blabber on, i just really wan’t my teeth straight and my private dentist said no when i was 15. So now i pay the price! Please do get in touch if you have time! I’d love to hear your verdict on my sad dilema! Much appreciated:) Ps: I have no idea if you even specialise in lingual braces, total guess!

my teeth are set out really well but the bottom of them are not straight

Monday, December 22nd, 2008
Q.
Hello, my teeth are set out really well but the bottom of them are not straight. The two top teeth start off straight and then go up a bit and my bottom teeth between the two of them is a chip and it really upsets me and the rest have chips out of them and it really knocks my confidence. I cry because it upsets me so much. Is there anything that a dentist can do to make them straight because this will really help ? thank you

I have had Inman Aligners which I wore for over 9 months

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008
Q.
I have had Inman Aligners which I wore for over 9 months before giving up because I had to work abroad. My teeth had not got into the position they were promised they would by my dentist. Now I am back in the UK, I would like to finish treatment but not by the same dentist. He said I should try invisalign and I would only need 2 sets, but how can I be sure this would be right? I do not want to go through more money and time and maybe 4 or 5 sets of expensive invisalign. Can you advise? Can you promise that Invisalign ARE invisable! I have to work with the public and speak a lot to them. I do not want months of mickey taking again.

I’ve found out I have a class II div 2 mal occlusion

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008
Q.
Hi there. Having done a little research into this, I’ve found out I have a class II div 2 (mal)occlusion. I’m keen to straighten my teeth but also to try and move my lower jaw forward a little, as it has a “weak” appearance in profile and gives me a double chin when I’m not even fat! I’m not sure how related this is to my teeth positioning, but it would be nice to try and tackle it. I’m wondering which methods are generally suitable for this tooth layout, and whether some might be more suitable for bringing my lower jaw forward, if that is indeed possible? Many thanks for your time.

Q.
Hi Basically my teeth are fine but the upper front 2 are sticking out a little, I’ve been to see my orthodontist and he suggested I need one extraction and a brace putting on, I want to know how much this would cost on average because I got a quote of £1500 which is steep for me 🙁 Would removable braces be cheaper?? Kind Regards.

One of my upper incisors B didn’t grow It is genetics

Thursday, December 11th, 2008
Q.
Hello, One of my upper incisors (B) didn’t grow. It is genetics. My sister don’t have one of the incisors (B) too. They move her teeth so the big gap size of a tooth dissapeared. In my case they put a temporary porcelain tooth which is glued with some special glue to my incisor (A) and canin. I was supposed to have a surgery where they would give me implant. But I don’t want to have implant. I am just 22 years old and I don’t want to have fake tooth all my life. I would like to have my teeth moved, so the space, where is porcelain tooth now, will be gone. They did this with my sisters teeth so it is possible isn’t it? It doesn/t matter that the gap is big as a tooth? I would like to ask you if it can be done and if it can be done with Invisalign. Thank You very much
