Ive oesteoporsis should i go for breaking my jaw or should i go for having fixed braces

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009
Q.
I am 16, i have oesteoporsis and my bottom jaw is further forward than the top. my dentist had suggested breaking my jaw but with my oesteoporosis they think it would cause a lot of comlications so instead they are offering me fixed braces for two years and want me to write a letter telling them if i want this or not, i have read about the risk of pain and tooth decay if my teeth arent kept clean but i still would like normal teeth. I dont know how much fixed braces would improve my bite. And im not sure if it is worth the trouble because most people think i should just be happy with my teeth how they are and get used to it but what if im missing an oppertunity to have a good smile like other people.

My top front teeth are slightly squint and one overlaps would Invisalign solve the problem

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009
Q.
I was wondering about ‘Invisalign’. I have a pretty bad overcrowding problem. My top two front teeth are slightly squint and one overlaps the other. The same can be said for the teeth directly on either side of these two. My wisdom teeth haven’t grown in yet, and I worry that I’ll have problems with that because I can barely feel any roomfor them at all. Anyway, I was wondering if Invisalign could fix this problem with overlapping. I’m nineteen and I don’t want to have to wear a mouth full of metal. I love smiling, but I feel self-concious about how uneven my teeth are. Do you have any advice?

A.
I think invisalign could sort … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
