Can I get braces again?

July 21st, 2011
Q.

Hi, I’m 17 years of old and I just feel the need to have braces again to straightened my teeth back to how they were after my other brace.. I had them first at 11/12, I only had to wear them for 6 months and then had to wear a retainer for the remainder of the next 6 months. My teeth have, gone rather crooked from not wearing the brace as much was required. But is there any chance I can get my teeth done again, and this time permanently? But is there by any chance I can get an invisible brace, that I read on a website I came across earlier this evening? Whats the chance on getting this done on the NHS also?

Will the Inman aligner damage my teeth?

July 19th, 2011
Q.

Hello Doctor, I hope you are well

I was just wondering about Inman aligners. It sounds like one of the best treatments being very fast and much cheaper than some of the other more modern braces but could you tell me how it works. I understand there are opposing pressures and am just mildly worried that this could damage my teeth. Has this ever been the case? My problem is mainly my front teeth which are slighly buck, what is the general treatment time for a condition such as this?

thank you for your time doctor

How do I stop my teeth from grinding together?

July 19th, 2011
Q.

hello

my back teeth are always grinding together, to the point where i think they are going to just wear each other away. I definitely think it is something to do with my bite and the fact that my top and bottom teeth don’t sit together properly, just like kind of towards the left side more. My question is, can braces fix something like this and if not what would you recommend?

any help you could give would be brilliant
