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

Hi Dr.Solanki,
I had undergone root canal treatment on my upper front teeth which broke when i was a kid. Apparently I had to cover that tooth with a cap and my upper row of front teeth are projecting a little outwards. My lower row of teeth are crooked and are pointing a little inwards. Please suggest me a way to get my teeth aligned ??
Hi, I live in bradford and It is my brothers wedding and my teeth stick out (the top ones) and i really don’t like them and hate smiling and i really want to know about this treatment, will my teeth be ok before July and as it is really far would I have to visit all the time or could it be referred in bradford?

Hello Dr , I am an 18 year old male with teeth that protrude by 4mm. I have very short roots so have been advised against braces, but I am very concerned about the appearance of my teeth because I am going to be studying drama at university in two years time. Can veneers, crowns, or anything else be used to improve the appearance of these teeth? any help would be appreciated- thanks alot
I am a 47 year old with protruding front teeth that are also twisted which makes my whole lower face jut out. I would love to straighten my teeth push them back and have a nice smile before my 50th. Right now I hate taking photos. I am British Afro Caribbean and have been told that a lot of black skins have this facial feature but this only due to my teeth. What can be done and what will be the cost…Help.
Good Afternoon Dr. Verma,
I visited two orthodontists and a dentist for my right upper canine tooth that is slightly protruding.
The first orthodontists, said that i needed to remove both left and right 2nd premolars and wear braces for two years then retainers, because i also have a slight overbite.
The second said the same thing. but i only need it on top.
The dentist said that since its the canine tooth that’s protruding, i could wear a hawley retainer to pull/push it in for a year.
Do you think the hawley retainer would actually work?
And is it really necessary for them to remove the premolars if it is slightly protruding?
