I had braces when I was 16 and had them off at 18

Q.
Hello! I had braces when I was 16 and had them off at 18. I am now 20 and my teeth have moved slightly and the no longer are as perfect as they were which is very depressing since I went through countless appointments and discomfort to get them that way! Is there a way that this can be solved without drastic cost or prolonged discomfort? Thank you

I’m 21 years old and I definitely dont want any braces

Friday, November 28th, 2008
Q.
Hey, I’m 21 years old and I definitely dont want any braces. But, I have this one tooth between my incisor and canine which is completely crooked. It looks like I have a gap in my top half set, and then when you look close enough there is a tooth sitting at a 45 degree angle between two other teeth. Do you think if I had my widsom tooth in the top right corner of my mouth removed, my crooked tooth would straighten up? And if so, how long would it take? Thanks

I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me

Friday, November 21st, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me? I’ve previously looked into invisallign but was told it was not suitable. My problem I’d like to correct is crowding at the bottom. Although I’ve been told my top teeth are all shifted to the right so these would need to all move (which apparently is a lot more work). I also have two teeth which are rotating due to missing adult teeth that are non existant! I am 28 and have 2 baby teeth left in tact. My wisdom teeth are also fully erupted on my bottom so they are causing even more crowding. I’m guessing this sounds like a massive job? I’d like to have confirmation that something is possible – I’ve been somewhere and was told it was would take too long and made to feel ashamed! so I’m at my wits end! I’d appreciate your feedback.
