Can braces close gaps and fix crooked teeth at the same time?

October 12th, 2011
Q.

I am 67 and wanted to sort out my teeth so my grand kids will remember me to be a perfect bill of health. they are crooked but don’t overlap because many of them have gaps. I wanted to know if braces could sort out both gaps and crooked teeth at the same time? I’ve looked at my teeth and there definitely wouldn’t be gaps if they were closer there’s still plenty of tooth there. there is I think a number if issues with doing this at my age one being time, I need to do this as quickly as possible and secondly at a reasonable budget. do you know of any financial help I could receive?
which system would be best for me based on what you know?

My teeth are beyond re-structural help. What can I do?

September 28th, 2011
Q.

I have several teeth that I believe are beyond re-structural help they are all healthy and well coloured but it would take a genius metal fabricator to get wire round these bad boys, however i need corrective treatment and was wondering for extreme cases of crowded teeth what would be the best option? ive toyed with the idea of having them removed and having implants as its only like 3/4 teeth? obviously id prefere to keep my teeth but they really are all over the place. so if they were only a little out of line invislign would surely be the obvious treatment as the teeth don’t have to move far and you can barely see it. at the other end of the scale like I am what would you recommend looking at and am I well off in my idea or have you seen it done before?
