I want the Inman Aligner, but have a cracked tooth, what should I do?

February 10th, 2012
Q.

Hello sir…
Could you please take time to read the problem I’m having. the tooth directly below my top left canine (just looks like a lower canine but I don’t know if this is the correct name) has been pushed forwards. I was looking at it the other day though and it looks to have a crack line running the full length vertically inside my tooth almost. I want to have something like the Inman algner that works fast on my lower teeth as my top teeth are perfectly fine but didnt know what to do about this situation? Thank you in advance for any help.

I’m bored of eating the same foods, are there any foods you can recommend for a person with braces?

Q.

hello, I hate my braces, not the look of them necessarily just the sheer discomfort. I accept that when I have them off my teeth will be better looking than ever, so im not miffed in anyway about that I had the choice of having them. however could you please advise me on a few foods to eat please I’ve been very limited on my new diet primarily to porridges and yoghurt’s as well as soups. I have only had them on probably just over two weeks now and am fed up of the foods I’m eating. the dentist told me a whole host of foods not to eat but not ones I could- and I didn’t think to ask! also how long will I have to wait before this subsides? any help you could give me would surely improve my quality of life right now. thanks for your time Dr Thorne

My braces feel like they’re going to rip my face off, is that normal?

October 27th, 2011
Q.

hello Tif, I had braces put on last week and In feel like they are going to pull my face off- teeth first! I have been told that I would feel some pressure and that they would take some getting used to but to be honest they haven’t given me much of a lisp or an any other issue, they do rub a bit on the inside of my lips and cheeks which I think is going to sting when it starts to have an effect. but for now the main issueis with the pressure being applied to my teeth if this keeps up they will be where they must in days but ill wont! could you tell me if they should be like this and how long if they are the pressure applied to teeth lasts? surely it cannot be the whole 18 month course of treatment? I thank you in advance for any feedback that may help.

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
