I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me

Friday, November 21st, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m wondering if lingual braces will be suitable for me? I’ve previously looked into invisallign but was told it was not suitable. My problem I’d like to correct is crowding at the bottom. Although I’ve been told my top teeth are all shifted to the right so these would need to all move (which apparently is a lot more work). I also have two teeth which are rotating due to missing adult teeth that are non existant! I am 28 and have 2 baby teeth left in tact. My wisdom teeth are also fully erupted on my bottom so they are causing even more crowding. I’m guessing this sounds like a massive job? I’d like to have confirmation that something is possible – I’ve been somewhere and was told it was would take too long and made to feel ashamed! so I’m at my wits end! I’d appreciate your feedback.

I’m having Lingual braces fitted tomorrow

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008
Q.
Hi, I’m having Lingual braces fitted tomorrow and am 31. Recently having spoken to my local dentist I am regretting having chosen the lingual option with the Orthodentist (I chose this for aesthetic reasons as my work involves presenting to outside clients etc). He advised that Linguals are no good – is this the case?? Also how can I ease into the Lingual braces quicker as I understand that eating and talking will be harder??

I would like to get a gap in the front of my teeth closed

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008
Q.
Hi Doc, I would like to get a gap in the front of my teeth closed, i was asking questions to my dentist and he advised me to get the gold slit fitted due to the fact that my gap is wide, its about half a centemeter ( 0.5) & Thats wide and i would like to be able to smile alot more. Please help with infomation about whom is the best person to get this done with and what would be the Costs, i have read about the veneers but it will leave you having to change the whole look of the front and thats not what i want, i just want to be able to smile and without me having to change the look and shape of teeth that are not affected. i guess thats because it will be costly. Please help as i want this done urgently.. i will kindly await your response, adam

I have been advised I am not suitable for Invisalign

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008
Q.
I have been advised I am not suitable for Invisalign or the 6 month smile treatment to treat an overbite. I do not consider metal braces for 2.5 years as an option. Are there any other treatments such as Invisalign that can be looked into? Also would it be an idea to have another consultation with another Invisalign or Clearstep partition?

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?
