How can i get straight teeth?

October 24th, 2013
Q.

My two front teeth bend severely inwards but over the years my dentist hasn’t pushed for me to have anything done about it. In the past I have been told that in order to wear braces I would first have to have some teeth extracted as I have overcrowding.So, say I have some teeth extracted-then what braces would be best to make my two front teeth straight and realign the rest of my teeth? I don’t want the most expensive treatment but I don’t want them to really stand out…Any help or advice you could pass my way would be fantastic. Thanks

I want discreet braces for my 12 year old daughter

October 17th, 2013
Q.

Hello,
I wondered if you could help me.My daughter is 12 years old and has been told that she will need orthodontic treatment. This is at an NHS clinic we go to. They say she will have to wear fixed braces on both her top and bottom teeth. My daughter is not at all happy about this and has been crying about the prospect. At first I thought she would come around to the idea but it has been going on for over a month now. If I was to look into private dental clinics would there be more discreet options for my daughter or would they be the same fixed braces? Thanks for your time.

I want to get my wife a smile makeover

October 11th, 2013
Q.

Hello there,
My wife has always complained about her teeth for a number of years. I have heard about smile makeovers from my daughter and would like to get this for my wife as a gift. I think that she would need braces as her bottom teeth are not straight and I would like to get her some cosmetic work that she can decide on. She works as a primary school teacher so I would like braces which she would not be embarrassed about. Can you tell me about the best braces for adults? many thanks for your time

What braces would be suitable for my front teeth?

October 11th, 2013
Q.

Hello Doctor,
I am getting married next Year and really want to get my teeth sorted out before my big day. My teeth are in a bit of a mess, they are healthy and white but not straight. I can see problem areas all over my mouth. I am a primary school teacher so if I am to wear braces they would have to be discreet and not affect my speech too much. I have been looking at Inman Aligner treatment as I saw some information about it in a magazine. I don’t know much about other braces but what would you say would be the best treatment for me? My back teeth are straight its just all the front ones top and bottom. There are so many braces and so many websites that i just get very confused about which would be best for me. Thank you for your time and I look forward to seeking your advice. Kind regards and take care

What braces can my teenage daughter wear?

October 2nd, 2013
Q.

Hi Doctor,
My teenage daughter has been told that she will need to have braces because she has an overbite. She is very upset about this because she is a very shy girl and finds it hard to make friends and talk to people as it is. Out current dentist has told her that the braces will be fixed and she just doesn’t want them and is refusing even to discuss this with us.
I would like to know more information about the braces that are available privately as i do not know much about this subject matter. If she came to your practice what braces would you possibly suggest that are more discreet?

I would like fast braces

September 23rd, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr, I have a number of issues with my teeth that i would like to sort out as soon as i can really. One of my fang teeth is twisted at the top and looks unsightly and i have wide gaps between my front teeth. I wouldn’t want very visible braces but I am not too bothered I would rather they were fast above everything else. Ideally I would like my teeth to be straightened in less than a year, any sooner than that would be brilliant.Can you recommend any braces for me? There seems to be so many braces out these days I don’t have a clue where to begin as i haven’t even found a private dentist yet. I don’t want to be talked into something that i do not know very much about so it would be very useful if you could advise me where to begin so that I have possible a list of two or three braces that I would be willing to discuss.

I am a bit biased here but My … (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Can I have braces that are discreet?

September 17th, 2013
Q.

Hello Dr Maini,
I am 29 years old and have crooked teeth all along the bottom of mouth. Generally they are easy to hide day to day but i would like to get them straightened so that I don’t have to worry about hiding them anymore. If possible I would like braces that i can take out because I do not want the health of my teeth to suffer at all as I had a friend who had this problem.I really don’t want fixed braces because of how they look, and I would like something that works quite fast but is gentle as I hate pain! are there any braces which would work for my problem do you think? I have heard about clear braces but i really don’t know much information about them or if they would be suitable for me. If I have to have fixed ones I don’t think I would have braces treatment.

A.
Depends on the severity of the… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

Does it hurt when you get braces?

June 17th, 2013
Q.

currently I’m eleven years old and a few weeks ago I had a visit to the orthodontist’ and she asked me when do I want my braces put on and I said next year (my teeth are so crooked) because I was scared that I’d be the only person in my school to have braces; now I feel like I want them done today ( we may consider getting them in a month) or so although I’m still a bit worried. My Questions’:
Does it hurt when you get braces?
what procedures do I have to go through?
how long do I keep my braces on for?
and…Which colours are available for braces?

Thank you

Which Discreet Braces Would You Recommend?

May 20th, 2013
Q.

Hi there! I was wondering if you could help me with something? I’m a 32 year old professional, I work in an office role and I have to give presentations and that sort of thing to other large businesses. I am looking into cosmetic braces to fix my very misaligned teeth but I am looking for something that will not impact my speech OR my smile really. So something that is both discreet but practical and will work fast. Can you recommend anything? I would just like a general idea before I make an dental appointment. Thank you!

What is the best way to straighten fangs?

April 8th, 2013
Q.

Hello there do you know the best way to straighten tooth fangs out, or drag them down or whatever you do to them? I have had this problem for a few years now and I just think it makes my smile look like something out of the predator movies and I would like to change that-obviously! 🙂 What is your recommended brace treatment for this problem and how long is lit likely to take to see results? I don’t mind have fixed braces, but if there is a more discreet brace that can do the job i would be very interested to hear about it! thank you for your time
