After braces treatment will my teeth reverse back to their original position?

June 6th, 2012

My two front teeth buckle inwards and causes my alot of pain in the mornings and also when eating. I have been to one orthodontsist quite a few years ago who old me I would have to have teeth taken out before any treatment could be done and also that my teeth would reverse back to their original state.
I really want to do something about this. I am 33 and I don’t have lots of money so I would also have to look at what in terms of treatment I could afford.
Do you think this is right or should I get a second opinion?

I have overcrooked teeth, will I need to have a tooth extraction before my Invisalign treatment?

February 20th, 2012

Hello,

I am looking to get my teeth treated through Invisalign as they are quite badly over crowded. I have been advised that I will either need extraction or IPR. I would much rather IPR than extraction, however I am concerned about the amount needed to be taken off each tooth. Do you know what the maximum amount of IPR Invisalign advise to take off every tooth? For example – is there a different amount for 1 – 2 compared to 4 – 5?

Thank you in advance,

A.

Q.

I just had my Damon braces fitted but would now rather change to 6 month smiles. Is this possible?

October 18th, 2010

Q.
Dear Dr, I am from Malaysia. I just had my Damon 3 fixed with 4 teeth extracted then only i found out about 6 month smiles. My question is, can i remove my Damon 3 and opt for 6 month smiles? My initial intention was jus to adjust the front teeth to their perfect positions. My upper 2 front slightly crooked out (just like a book) and my lower 3 slightly crooked. I really appreciate your advise in this as the braces that i\’m having now is really making my life very difficult. Thank you,

Dentist says to remove teeth for Invisalign, but I would much rather keep them?

August 24th, 2010

Q.
I have two very awkward teeth that are causing me a lot of problems and my orthodontist has recommended that i have them removed if i want invisalign. I really don\’t want any surgery and the teeth will not grow back so i\’d have to have a bridge or something he said. Do i have any hope with invisalign? Have you had experience with a patient who had teeth that should have been removed but managed to fix them? Please reply, thank you!,
