Can You Detail What The Recovery Period Is Like After Jaw Break Surgery?

June 4th, 2013

Hello Dr I hope you can clear a few things up for me. I have a terrible bite problem that’s been bugging me for years and I am wondering whether to go through with jaw break surgery so that I can also have my teeth straightened with orthodontics. Is the healing process particularly painful? WIll I have to have a completely liquid diet after it, and if so for how long? Also, how much time do you think that I’ll need off work in order to get all of this done correctly? Looking forward to your response. Thank you.

Should I Stick With My Inman Aligner Despite The Constant Pain?

May 14th, 2013

hey dr qureshi, my problem is one of an urgent nature really. basically i very recently got an inman aligner to rectify my crooked teeth, this is because i got really sick of being unhappy with my smile. i thought it’d be easier that is has proven so far. i am in quite a lot of pain and have been since they were put in. it feels as though there is maybe too much pressure, i mean, i was told initially that the aligner would cause me some pain but i’m not sure if this is quite right. could you please advise me on whether or not i should stick with the treatment?

Are My Six Month Smiles Causing Bad Breath?

May 1st, 2013

Hello. I have 6 month smiles and they’re fab, the tooth movement is extraordinary and my dentist has already said i could have them removed sooner than the expected treatment time which is great! HOWEVER, I have such terrible breath, I don’t know why this is but it’s only occurred since having the braces fitted. Can you please advise me? My dentist said my breath is fine, but it isn’t…I’ve already had comments from my husband. Thank you in advance.

Should I Have My Teeth Whitened Before Or After Invisalign Treatment?

April 24th, 2013

Hello, I’m just making a enquiry in regards to the invisalign system. Basically, my teeth are quite dull and I am planning on getting them whitened in the very near future. I also require invisible braces, I have a consultation next week basically I am suffering from some overcrowding and a slight cross bite. Just a heads up would be fantastic…should I have my teeth whitened before I get the braces or after? I want to ensure that I get the brightest possible smile but don’t want any marks left by the braces if I have them whitened beforehand. Do you know of any practices that offer free whitening with their brace treatments? I had a friend who had whitening with her braces but they don’t do it anymore…Thank you in advance!!

Can I get treatment to correct the gaps between my teeth?

March 19th, 2013

Hi, I am having gaps between the teeth and I would like to know which treatment will be the best to correct this. Though I had put braces at the age of 16, I failed to put the retainers properly which caused the gaps. I am a 31 year old female, is it possible to correct the gaps now ? Also I would like to know how much it will cost me and how long it will take? Also for the last 1 month I am having a blister in the gum just above the teeth. As advised by my GP I started using mouthwash and taking vitamin C tablets as well. This hasnt done any better. What could be the reason for this blister ?Please advice

I had braces when I was a teenager but now have a clicking jaw. What can I do?

March 13th, 2013

I had braces when I was a teenager but unfortunately my teeth have moved. Although I stopped wearing my retainer my dentist says that my teeth also moved as I now have ‘clicking jaw’ which I did not have before my braces when I was a teenager. He says this was probably as a result of my orthodontic treatment? I was wondering how this could be treated and also I feel that my teeth that sit right next to my two front teeth are too short? Can this be fixed with cosmetic dentistry or would I need orthodontic work?

I had braces 3 years ago but a gap has suddenly appeared between my lateral and central incisors. What should I do?

March 6th, 2013

Hi, I had braces for about 3 years and got them removed early. I wear my retainers 24/7 now that I have some that fit okay. A few months later I started flossing daily and noticed that a tiny gap appeared in between my lateral and central incisors on both sides on the top teeth. I am quiet elf conscious about it as I had braces for 3 years and expected near perfect teeth. Will a fixed retainer, some wires or something else be required to fix these tiny gaps? I really hope nothing big has to happen because they are only tiny (not really noticeable) But still make me feel self conscious. Thank you.
