6 Month Smiles or Invisalign?

August 7th, 2014
Q.

Hello, hope you are well! I’m trying to decide between Invisalign and 6 Month Smiles. About a month ago I had a consultation for Invisalign, and the dentist I saw said I might not be 100% satisfied with the results because it might be significantly better at straightening my bottom teeth than the top (my teeth at the top are severely crowded). He seemed to think that fixed braces would be much better for me and as much as I really want Invisalign I looked at fixed braces and found out about 6 Month Smiles. Would this be better for me?

My Teeth Have Relapsed, What Can Be Done?

August 5th, 2014
Q.

Hi Dr Thorne. I had Invisalign treatment 2 years ago, but I don’t think I wore the aligners for as long as I should have, I mean I would take them out quite often when I probably shouldn’t have, and I didn’t wear the retainers every night. My teeth weren’t really that bad but still enough of a problem for me to have braces to straighten them. I think my teeth have relapsed slightly, as there is a slight overlap between my top 2 teeth. What can be done about this?

6 Month Smiles Or Invisalign – Which Would Be Best For Me?

May 6th, 2014
Q.

When I was 17, I had fixed braces but I wasn’t keen on them at all. I now have front bottom teeth that overlap (I’m 28 now) and I’m not sure why this has occurred but obviously I want to sort it out! I don’t want to spend a lot of money, and I’ve heard that 6 Months Smiles is a cheaper option than Invisalign – but which treatment would be best for me? Also, are consultations free, and do they include teeth whitening? Thanks in advance.

I Have Sensitive Teeth. Will Invisalign Irritate My Teeth And Gums?

April 25th, 2014
Q.

Hello there Dr. Solanki. I do hope you can help me. I’m 26 years old and I have quite badly crooked teeth and I have wanted to do something about them for a long time. However, my teeth are very sensitive to most things, I’m afraid that the Invisalign treatment (which I would prefer as they are hardly noticeable) would irritate my gums and teeth. Do you think that it would affect my teeth, and what would you suggest is the best orthodontic route for someone with sensitive teeth?

I’ve Been To A Number Of Consultations And They Say I Need Braces To Straighten Just One Tooth, Is This Necessary?

September 30th, 2013
Q.

Hello! I think I have a problem regarding orthodontistry. I’ve been to a number of consultations now and every time I’ve been recommended a different type of brace so I don’t know what to do! All I want is one front tooth treating, it’s currently twisted quite badly but it’s the only one that I want treating at the moment. I’ve been recommended for 6 month smiles and Invisalign but I only want the one tooth fixing so I feel these two options are a bit over the top and extreme in the least. Is there anything you can recommend for the treatment of just the one tooth? Thank you!

I have an overbite, which braces should I get?

February 4th, 2011
Q.
Hello, I have an overbite with some crowding. The best way I can think to describe the situation is that the top two front teeth have grown slightly in front of the teeth either side due to me having a narrow bridge! I have been told Invisalign was not suitable after having me details sent to America by a practitioner in Stafford! Would it be worth getting a second opinion as I imagine my details will again be sent to the same place? Will something such as Clearstep be an option? I really don’t like the idea of having a fixed brace and not just because of the appearance but also because of actually having something fixed permanently in my mouth for a period of time.,

Will invisalign correct a class 3 underbite?

February 2nd, 2011
Q.
I am having a bit of a quandry, I went to the dentist recently and he said I had a class 3 underbite and should really look at getting it fixed. Thing is I hate how metal braces look, I am in my 30s and don’t want to look like a teenager so I am looking into getting invisalign. Would invisalign be effective dealing with a class 3 underbite? or do I need to just bite the bullet and get metal braces? thanks,
