Does Pregnancy Cause Problems with Inman Aligner Treatment?

Wednesday, October 29th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Gambroudes. I am picking up my Inman Aligner this Friday, and the treatment is due to be complete in a few months. My question is:
If I were to become pregnant during this time, would this cause problems my treatment? I have read some things on the internet that it shouldn’t be a problem but others have said it would be, which is true? Thank you in advance for your time!

I Have Paid a Lot of Money for Braces and My Teeth are Still Not Straight. What Should I Do?

Wednesday, September 10th, 2014
Q.

I paid £1800.00 for a brace and my teeth are still not straight. I was told that my treatment was finished and I did everything I was told to do during the treatment. They lost a few retainers so I had to get the brace put on again, and they also asked me to change practices twice, which also cost me more as it was no longer my local practice so I had to travel further. The brace is off now and I have to wear a plastic retainer every night. The teeth were never straight when my fixed brace was moved and I don’t know what to do. I feel that this has been a waste of money. What should I do?

I Used To Have Braces And My Teeth Need Straightening Again, What Can I Do?

Friday, August 2nd, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Kalpesh Bohara I was wondering if you could help me with an issue I have had for some time, I had fixed braces put in when I 13 years old I am know 23 I got these from an NHS surgery, I wore a retainer for a year then, a fixed brace for a year. My first four top teeth have returned to the way they were before I had the fixed brace. This frustrated me no end as I now feel like all of the treatment before was a complete waste of time. My confidence has gone right down, what would be the best thing for me to do? I’m on exception at the moment due to having a baby so wouldn’t be able to afford the huge costs. Any assistance that you could provide would be helpful. Thank you.

Would an Inman Aligner help re-align my teeth after my wisdom teeth have caused damage to them?

Wednesday, October 17th, 2012
Q.

Hi Andrew, so here’s my problem: I used to have perfect teeth until about a year ago when all my 4 wisdom teeth came out. When they came our, they pushed one of my front teeth out(next to the canine tooth) and the other one is my front teeth. Now I am left with 2 front teeth sticking out and I fear that the wisdom teeth have not fully erupted and so more damage will be done. The protruding teeth are really getting me down as I used to have nice teeth! Please advise me as to what I should do. I was thinking about getting an Inman Aligner, but I am not sure and it might just be too costly only for two teeth. Can you help at all? What would be the best option for me? Regards,

Can I send you some X-ray images before I travel to your clinic?

Monday, September 3rd, 2012
Q.

Dear Dr Andrew, i have recently browsed the internet and found your website and i like all the reviews and also the treatments you have provided for your clients. i want to get pre examined before visiting your clinic in the United Kingdom, to have an better idea for the treatment, period and costs.
I want to do teeth straightening treatment and also want to get pre-scanned by my dentist here then she can send you over the pictures and mount x-rays so you can make an estimation of my situation. hopefully its possible from your side. Please let me know. Thank you for your time, I await your response.

Should I have my veneers replaced or go ahead with brace treatment instead?

Monday, August 20th, 2012
Q.

Hi, I was hoping for some advice regarding the replacement of veneers. I have had veneers since I was 11 – I had 2 fitted to my lateral incisors as they were tiny and pointed, and I then had 2 more fitted at about 12/13 to my canine teeth for a similar reason. Although it was a definite improvement, I was never particularly happy with them, and had them replaced at 18. This set have been slightly better but I’m now nearly 26 and am still not entirely happy. I’ve always felt my canine teeth are too prominent, and my incisors too small. I think I had teeth removed when I was younger as the canines were growing above, and although they moved back roughly into place, I never had braces to sort them (and what I think is a slight overbite from years of thumb sucking!) out. I feel they face towards the front too much and stick out from the line of my other teeth (I am constantly faffing with them), and the small size of the adjacent teeth only makes them more prominent. I also feel I’d like my teeth to be slightly whiter – I consulted my dentist about this but she advised me that my teeth are already fairly light and I would only get a few shades whiter with a bleaching treatment, which might not be worth it. However, I’m not really after “Hollywood white” teeth, I just feel that because I have very pale skin, my teeth can have a tendency to look a little yellow and I’d like them to look a bit brighter. I suppose my main question is whether it would be worth looking into having replacement veneers and whitening at this stage – if I had new veneers applied to my 6 front teeth at the top, might it be likely to give a more unified look? Or do I need to resort to something like braces to realign the canines before I consider having them replaced? At this age, I’m not much keen on that idea, but at the same time I don’t want to spend a lot of money on veneers and still be unhappy. I realise this is probably a long winded and difficult question to answer without seeing my teeth, and to be honest, I haven’t seen the teeth under my veneers for so long, I don’t know how much is down to the tooth alignment, and how much is down to the size of the veneers. I’m just looking for some advice on the best course of action, which my Denplan dentist seems a bit reluctant to offer me. I recently chipped quite a large piece off one of my veneers and she wouldn’t even consider replacing it. I am considering changing over to a more cosmetic based dental practice, but am hoping to know what my options might be beforehand. Hope you can help, and apologies for the long message. Thanks.

Is it possible to have the Invisalign treatment when my wisdom teeth are starting to come through?

Friday, August 10th, 2012
Q.

Hello,
I have recently looked into the invisalign option to straighten six of my top front teeth, and was wondering if you could help me please. A recent dental x-ray revealed I have four wisdom teeth ready to grow out, all seemingly straight. (my dentist told me the top two and bottom right are fine; the bottom left is slightly tilted.) Is it possible to have invisalign whilst wisdom teeth are coming through, and is it possible to have the invisalign made to fit only over the teeth I require straightening, instead of the full set of top teeth?
Thank you.
