Are clear braces definitely unnoticeable?

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012
Q.

Hi there, i am getting braces very shortly. According to my mum she said that he said they will not be noticeable? is this clear braces i only have 3-4 teeth max to correct.

I am a bit confused as you may be aware i am 17 and quite scared to be honest i must admit i just need some clear basic advice from a professional 🙂

Many thanks for your answers i appreciate everyones contribution!

I have heard they at at least £3000 clear ones but why so much money… My dentist said i will have a 6 month treatment to 8 month treatment which is good i guess a good sign indeed… but i have also heard if you have a fixed brace you get clear ones free or something? ( i may be wrong there i dont know for 100% sure!

Our experienced orthodontic assistant is undermining our new Doctor, what should we do about it?

Friday, September 14th, 2012
Q.

Is it possible for an Orthodontist to put a power chain from the Upper 3’s-6;s on an initial 014 niti wire?.
We have a new Doctor and we have experienced Assistant. We work in a managed Orthodontist office. The assistant. has been claiming that she has never put a power chain on an 014 Niti, and so she refuses to. Is her experience more knowledgeable than our new Doctor? please tell me because this is a question that has been on my mind. What would be an Orthodontist reason for this type of procedure. Should the assistant be even questioning any Doctors treatment, as there is different methods that the Doctor will obviously use? Thank you.

My teeth were straight until my wisdom teeth started to come through, how can I resolve this problem?

Monday, August 13th, 2012
Q.

Hi there.

My teeth used to be perfectly straight until my wisdom teeth started growing in.

They are unable to grow properly because there isn’t enough room. Now I have a distinct overlap in my front two teeth. I have been advised that if I have my wisdom teeth removed then this may help resolve the problem – is this correct?

I am getting married in May 2013 and I was wondering how long it would take to straighten them and how much it would cost.

Thank you.

Will braces fix my lisp? I can’t find the answers I’m looking for online!

Friday, July 20th, 2012
Q.

I have a lisp and it is very noticeable. Whenever I hear a recording of myself speaking, I feel awkward.

My teeth, I’ve noticed that the whole left side of my bottom row teeth (starting after both two front bottom teeth) are straight. And then, on the right side is not. It just seems to have shifted position. And the right side is where me lisp is.

My top row kinda looks weird too but I’m not really sure.

Whenever I say “S” or “C’ or any other letters that sound like that, my mouth shifts to the right side.

I was wondering, what will fix this?? Will braces? Cause I’ve been looking into them and no where online has given me sufficient facts about it.

Any Answers??

I think my orthodontic treatment is moving my teeth incorrectly. What should I do?

Friday, October 21st, 2011
Q.

Hi,
I am 26 years old and have been undergoing orthodontic treatment for 5 months now to correct my grade 3 underbite.
My concern is that my back teeth (where the brackets are) have gradually raised up since the treatment started. This is the case on both sides of my mouth and it is my lower jaw.
I have tried to discuss this with my orthodontist but he just dismissed my question.
Have I got a viable concern?
If so can it be avoided with different treatment management and what has caused this to happen?
Your response will be very much appreciated. Thanks

Should I go to a dentist or orthodontist to close my tooth gap?

Tuesday, September 13th, 2011
Q.

Hello

I have been considering getting invisalign for a while now and have decided to finally go for it. Briefly, my history is that i have a natural gap between my two front teeth as well as quite widely spaced lower teetth. The gap between the front teeth was covered up by veneers done by my dentist, who was not a cosmetic specialist. A few years later i’m not 100% happy with my teeth particularly the size of the veneers as well as the gaps and protrusion. I’ve been to see an orthodontist as well as an invisalign specialist / cosmetic dentist. Orthodontist thinks fixed braces are best and the specialist says invisalign will solve the issue. I am torn between going with the orthodontist or dentist. Invisalign is my preference, and my question is whether orthodontic experience should be a pre-requisite in the person i choose.
Thanks
