I am 21 years old i have three gaps in the upper jaw

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008
Q.
Dear Expert, I am 21 years old. Since I was a child I had been unhappy about my teeth. I have gaps between them – 3 in the upper jaw and 5 in the lower jaw, all in the front. In addition to this, my teeth in the lower jaw are very small. My parents or dentists I had visited in the past were never concerned as my teeth were always very healthy, and I was also told that braces would not help as my teeth are either too small or moving them would cause more serious problems. After many years of ignoring the problem, I feel that I should no longer be afraid to smile widely and would like to do something about this. In addition to filling the gaps, I would like to whiten my teeth. Could you please let me know what I should start from, what kind of procedure may be involved and what are the potential (approximate) costs?

Treatment for gaps is often ei… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

can i straighten and reshape my teeth without braces

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008
Q.
Hi, all through high school, i had braces for almost 4 years because my teeth were really badly crooked. the looked great when they came off and were perfectly straight. after just a couple of years, they went back to how they used to be. now theyre crooked again. i feel like I am too old for braces now and dont see the point in going through all that again if theyre only going to go back to crooked again. is there any other alternatives in straightening them? and also, any way of re-shaping them as my top front ones seem to be larger than the rest. which over all, my teeth are not great at all. could you reccomend what i could do? your advise and reply would be so helpful. please respond. thank you
