Hi, fi have been seeing a orthodontist in london i have a narrow maxillar this effects my breathin and struggle to breath through my nose. Also this really effect my articulation as my tonge will not go intio the back of the mouth as it should be for speen and keeps coming forward. It is costing me £7000 with the orthodonticst he has fitted a bite appliance to bring my lower jaw forward and also to widen the upper arch. I know this is what needs to be done as the arch is high. I have been reading on the internet an adults upper arch cannot be widened as the bone is now solid and only the teeth will be tipped and can only be done via surgery. I have been going around the uk seeing different dentist and this is really getting me down.
Pls can you help io am spending a fortune on this.
Thank you

hi
I am a female 22 yrs old. I have been wearing braces for the past 6 and half yrs. My teeth were croocked and croweded i had 2 teeth taken out from the bottom therefore this would provide the space needed to straighten them. I keep asking my orthodentist when will he remove them he keeps saying not. I have depresses and hate my teeth now as they’re not stright yet. I am also fed up of the pain that comes with. I just want them off and my orthodentist does not undrstand my frustration.
I have not paid for my braces as i got them on the NHS when i was 16. I cannot afford a second opinion. however I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
Kind regards.
My wife is looking to have a gap repaired in her front teeth and them restored to their original length and have veneers. We are worried about the amount of preparation required for veneers and so the possiblity of lumineers is attractive. However our dentist says that luminers are just a thin version of a normal veneer and the result will neither be as durable or as asthetically pleasing since there will always be an “edge” where the veneer meets the tooth using the lumineer approach. What do you think. Regards.
