Thursday, January 27th, 2011I have been told that I need to have teeth removed and then braces, what advice can you offer?

Dear Dr Hughes,
I have just been to have a consultation for Invisalign at an orthodontists in Exeter. I was told that invisalign could straighten my teeth perfectly, however because my front teeth project forward (10mm i think he said), my teeth would look straight but the front ones would stick out even more (maybe 11mm). Instead, the dentist recommended that I first have a molar taken out of each side of my top teeth, then have train tracks for around 18months as these would straighten and bring my front teeth in further. I really do not want train tracks (I know you can get white ones etc) and wondered if you had any other suggestions? My teeth are not in major need of restoration, it is just mainly the top right lateral incisor that is twisted so half is underneath the front tooth next to it, and of course the projection of my front teeth. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
I am trying to have jaw surgery but my medical records are lost, what should I do?
Monday, January 24th, 2011Q.
hi i was wondering if you could help, basically when i was 14 i was referred to the royal london hospital for an operation on my jaw to improve my teeth alignment as braces wasnt going to correct this. it was an 18 month waiting list and being 14 i just wanted braces. however now im 19 and after years of authordontic treatment my teeth are still not aligned, i went to a private dentist in colchester to see if he could help, he said that i do need the operation but i need to request my dental notes from the hospital in london as without this he cant refer me to the hospital in colchester. ive tried to request the notes but they said they dont have any records on their system of me. is there anything i can do about this thank yo.u

Is there an alternative to braces?
Friday, January 21st, 2011Q.
Hello, I’m 18 and my dentist adviced me to put on braces on top and bottom. But in my top teeth I don’t have them too messed up, so I was wondering if I had an alternative to braces, like surgery or something like that.
Thanks.

Would you recommend veneers or cosmetic braces to straighten my smile?
Thursday, January 20th, 2011Q.
Dr. Solanki.
I am 19years old and my front left tooth is starting to get pushed forwards making my front row of teeth crooked due to there being no room. I have a sight over bite of about 1cm also. I have been to an orthodontic consultation and they advised me to have fitted metal braces for 18months but i take a lot of pride in my appearance and having braces would seriously damage my self image. Also my wisdom teeth have not come through yet. My teeth are not dis-coloured or mishaped in any way. What would your advise be about the Invisalign braces or veneers which i have also thought about?
My 11-year-old needs orthodontic treatment, is a wire brace a good alternative to surgery?
Thursday, January 20th, 2011Q.
My son is 11 years old .The dentist is quite concerned and have referred him to an orthodontist. His 2front teeth potrude out at the front and seem to be to big for his jaw. she mentioned a hospital appointment to have the jaw moved up, at that stage my son panicked. She said no need to worry it will maybe a wire brace pleaase could you explain what this means
