Front teeth stick out and look very bad need treatment

Monday, November 9th, 2009
Q.
Dear Mr Bohara, When i was around 15 i was referred to a orthodontist, I cancelled the appointment and didn’t continue with my treatment. Two of front teeth stick out like ”vampire teeth”. I was just wondering how much it would cost me to have braces and how long do you think i would have to keep them on for!

Would six month smile braces take longer time?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
Thank you for your very useful earlier advice. With regards to the ‘six month smile’ braces – do they really only take six months or can they end up taking longer? How reliable are they long term, i.e. would my teeth move back afterwards? Many Thanks.

Confused over duration taken for smile treatment

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I visited an orthodontist in Cambridge who was very helpful. He said my teeth have an 8mm gap from top to bottom, they are also quite crowded at the top.So i would have to have 2 teeth extracted. The answer to straightening my teeth was take 2 teeth out one each side at the top (premolars)and then have a fixed brace for 18 months. I am quite happy with his answers to my questions.The cost was £2800 which i thought was reasonable. When i got home i looked into it more on the internet and found out about 6 month smiles. Would that be more suitable for me. The orthodonist i saw does’nt fit 6 month smiles.I guess he knows about the procedure and probably thought it wasn’t suitable for me, but would it be worth me making an appointment with yourself or someone nearer to my town to see if that treatment would be better.

My dentist is reluctant to suggest a treatment could you please help?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Q.
Hi, I have a quick question I hope you might be able to answer. One of my front teeth is slightly twisted and is particularly noticeable when you look at it from the side. It makes me self-conscious when I smile, although my other teeth are still in place and I would be happy to leave them where and how they are. I wore a fixed brace and then a removeable brace as a teenager and have recently had my top 2 wisdom teeth removed due to overcrowding (perhaps this may have caused the front tooth to twist?). I asked my dentist about possible treatments but he seemed reluctant to suggest anything as the tooth is healthy. I wouldn’t want to wear another fixed brace and ideally would want a quick, long term solution, preferably not too expensive. I was wondering what might be the best option? Thanks.

Need extensive makeover to my teeth

Saturday, October 31st, 2009
Q.
I’m 22 and my teeth are awful! I’m embarassed to smile, laugh and often get told to ‘cheer up’ because of my regular closed mouth expression. My teeth are discoloured, sensitive, and crooked. This is due to lack of dental care when I was a child. I regularly use whitening products, and sensitive toothpastes, I visit the dentist but just seem to have filling upon filling. I’m so scared of one of my front teeth completely falling out. I honestly feel like I would be happier with false teeth, which is a bit of a daunting prospect at the age of 22. Being a student, I cant afford cosmetic dentisty and even the financial plas seem to want £100+ a month, which just isnt an option for me. I don’t seem to have a local dentistry school, and even ones far away seem to have full waiting lists. I’ve considered using a student loan to go abroad to have ‘cheap’ dentistry work done but hav been advised this could make things even worse. What should I do?
