Disappointed with Invu braces that don’t seem too invisible! Feedback?

October 12th, 2011
Q.

I had tooth coloured braces/Invu braces fitted last week, theyre not tooth coloured at all they look like big lumps of mould on my teeth. sure they are ‘sssslightly’ more discreet than metal ones consdering a pigs more discreet than a hippo. is there anything I can do now they’re on? can I have them removed or am i advised to keep them on. I cant work out if im mad or not- sounds dilly but I mean if i had traditional metal ones i would be happy if they looked like this but these are not what i was expecting i think thats the issue. where do i stand in terms of getting a new set or like i said is that it now?
sorry I know this is more of a rant but i dont know if I can get them off and i dont want to walk into the dentist and offend him without first knowing that i can have this kind of thing done, cheers for your time Dr.

Whats the cheapest I can get braces for?

July 29th, 2011
Q.

Hi,

I am 30 and finally in a position where I can afford to have my teeth fixed. I do not qualify for NHS treatment as it is cosmetic reasons, with crowding on my bottom jaw and large gaps due to missing teeth on my top jaw.

I am going to get several quotes over the next month, but don’t want to get ripped off.

As a ball park figure, what would be the cheapest cost I could get for braces on both upper and lower teeth to fix this. I appreciate that any crowns/bridges etc may be an extra cost on top of this.

I am worried about the result and cost, but am not worried what the braces look like while on as long as they work.

Thanks

What braces treatment would you recommend for my horrible crooked teeth?

July 8th, 2011
Q.

Hello Doctor,

I just wanted some general advice on the best brace for my condition. I understand that a full evaluation will be needed before everything can be certain but I would just love some outside information to help me with my choice. OK basically I have very horrible teeth, not decayed or disease just very crooked. My two front teeth are buck and I have a number of those ‘fang’ teeth which occur when teeth erupt above milk teeth and then never settle. Which brace system would you recommend for treating this case effectively, quickly and if possible discreetly?

Thank you very much for your time doctor and any help you can give is greatly appreciated.
