I’ve been referred to have my wisdom teeth out, i also have an under bite that i want sorting out, what are my options?

October 12th, 2012
Q.

I have been referred to have wisdom teeth out as the lower left is on the jawbone. I asked my dentist a year ago about this as I was concerned my teeth would move and would affect how straight they were. I also have an underbite and my bottom front teeth have been moving since the wisdom teeth started to come through- now these have moved forward making the underbite more noticeable again. For a few years now I was at an edge to edge bite for the front teeth but this is now changing. Just wondering what my options are as I am 23 now but am really not happy with my teeth. I am really conscious of the underbite, more so now that my bottom teeth have moved, I know I can have an operation on the jaw but want to avoid that? Thanks

My top wisdom teeth are pointing outwards, they are not causing any pain but they just rub against my cheek, what should i do?

August 30th, 2012
Q.

Alright Darsh, My top two wisdom teeth are almost completely through, they are pointing outwards, towards my cheeks. They are not causing me any pain or discomfort but i wanted to see if there are any braces available to straighten wisdom teeth. I thought because they are far back in my mouth, a plate would not be possible as it might be quite uncomfortable? As i said it doesn’t hurt but it’s just a little annoying them pointing outwards and rubbing on my cheek. I would look into having them taken out, but is this not quite major dental work? I’d obviously prefer to just have some kind of brace. Thanks for your help!

Is there any way I can get braces even though I am currently having problems with my wisdom teeth?

June 1st, 2012
Q.

Morning! Could you please advise me, I’m having a fair bit of trouble with my wisdom teeth coming through. It’s been a very long process, i think they first started to come through 2 years ago and they just stop and start when they please but I’ve heard this is normal. I’m in absolute agony when they do, my whole head feels sore and painful. Could this be to do with an infection or are they coming out wrong or something? I’ve wanted braces for the past few years but didn’t know if it was a good idea while my wisdom teeth were still coming through? If so how long is it before they usually come all the way through? Or could i still have some kind of brace when they are coming though? Thanks you!

Why would my teeth begin to crowd at the ago of 39?

February 17th, 2012
Q.

Hi there
My bottom set of teeth have been crowding for the past two years (Im 39 years old) it got so bad that I bit the front off my lower front tooth and thought it wise to have it removed to free some space – as the pressure felt too much (it could not be crowned). Why would they start crowding so badly? I did have my wisdom teeth removed as they were sideways on and never going to appear. Could a remnant of tooth be left in the gum that has decided to travel – it appears only on one side. I truly believe the gap will close because of the pressure I have been experiencing. I really need to see an orthodontist. Would you have an x-ray on the back teeth?

Q.

Hi, Iam a 27year old female and hope you can help me. My teeth were straight up until i had my two kids, and whilst I was pregnant my wisdom teeth came through and my mouth got rather overcrowded and my once straight teeth went crooked. Its mostly my front teeth that hav started going to the side. What braces do you think would be best and how much am I looking at? or are traditional fixed braces still the cheapest? thanks so much for your time

Do I need a tooth removed before braces?

August 10th, 2011
Q.

Please could you tell what to do when you have a canine tooth in this case my right, that has grown on top of or at least slightly overlapping the teeth surrounding it. My mouth is small and as my wisdom teeth have emerged all my previously straight teeth bottom and top are becoming more uneven. I would like to have braces perhaps but don’t know if I would need some teeth removed before straightening could start. I would also like to have some whitening done but not sure if it is best to wait until the other problems are sorted first. I have never shown my teeth in a photograph and try not to laugh or smile as i feel it looks bad. If you have any advice i would be grateful.

How much are braces for life?

July 26th, 2011
Q.

Hi there,
I had braces as a teenager but was never fully satisfied with the results. Now at 24 I would like to get braces again. I am unsure which ones would be suitable.
My Wisdom teeth have started to come through and its causing my front two teeth to push together and slightly forward. This is all I would like corrected.

What can you suggest? and how much money do you think this would cost?
A friend of mine has a metal bar behind her teeth for life- I wouldnt mind this.
