    Default Gaps and Inman aligner

    Hi
    I have gaps in my upper set of teeth which are very noticeable.

    http://www.unionsquaredental.com/ima...close-gaps.gif
    ^ my teeth look similar to this upper set of teeth

    I can not afford braces and I read about the Inman Aligner and want to know if they could close these gaps? I am really looking for a fast orthodontics treatment that will cost no more than £2000. On average, how much would it cost to sort my teeth? Also where can I find a denist that will provide the treatment? (I live in Berkshire)
    Thanks in advance

    You can always go to the Inman aligner website and search for registered dentists. It's difficult to say if the aligner will work as it's not clear (eve with the photos) as to what your problem is. If you have spaces due to incorrect angulation of your teeth, the aligner may work. If it's a tooth size problem then you would need to consider alternative options

    I hope this helps

    Hi Syra

    Pav is right. You can only use an Inman Aligner to close the gaps if your teeth are proclined.i.e..they stick out.

    Bear in mind that the image you linked to have had veneers to close the spaces.
