Can the front of my teeth be too uneven to have braces fitted to them?

Q.

Dear Saba, I have been having problems with my teeth for some time now. I have a really uneven surface to some of my front teeth especially those on the lower jaw. I think this is because of my diet in the past, which has vastly improved over the last few years. The issue is my teeth are crooked and I think are wearing on teeth from the upper arch as a result. (as a few stick out). as for having a brace could I have it on the teeth even if the surface is uneven or would it be a better idea to have them on the back of the teeth as I think this is nice and smooth? thanks for your time

Are there different types of lingual brace?

Q.

Hello. as a 25 year old assistant teacher I don’t feel that traditional braces offer the look of proffesionalism in the workplace. as a reslult I had thought about having a lingual brace. I know there are differnt types of brace (I can see a list of them on the side of the page here) but they are all different as some are on the front of the teeth and the linguals are on that back. what I want to know is that, there are many different types of brace I can see that are for the front but how many different types of brace are there for the back of the teeth or is there just the one option? thanks
