April 17th, 2012
Q.

Hello Saba. I want to know how much lingual braces cost in relation to regular braces. I imagine hat you cannot give me a direct quote but as a percentage would you say they were 20%, 30%… more I am trying to work out whether its worth having them or paying for Damon braces or something like this on the front of the teeth. also what are your thoughts to that? cheers

What would you say is the most obvious alternative to traditional braces?

January 31st, 2012
Q.

Hello, I really want braces but I dont want conventional ones. I really hate ttraintracks and all that comes with them, the speaking problems etc… Coupled with the fact that they look disgusting I just dont want them. I have seen a lot of alternatives but have noticed that different dentists/orthodontists/specialists all have different opinions on each, for example I have heard bad things of the inman aligner, saying it isnt an exact science and all this. givene these suggestions what would you say is the most obvious alternative to traditiona braces? thanks

Q.

hello I am thinking of having braces and have looked through this website for alternatives to the old fashioned metal braces. I do not want these as Id rather have crooked teeth, they are horrible clumpy things! what I cannot do well on here though is compare my favourites side by side (any website in general) what I would do therefore is ask your opinion. in correcting crooked bottom (they aren’t massively crossed which is why I have had the luxury of taking my time thinking about having them done) teeth what what would you say was the best orthodontic treatment to fix them without getting traditional fixed braces? cheers

Q.

hello Dr Darsh Patel.my teeths at the front of my mouth are quite badly crossed and have been like this for a few years now since I was 17 ( I a now 22). its clear that I should have had braces at that point as they would have been never been like this now and would have been fixed, over and done with. at the end of next July I will be moving out to start my new job up north in Manchester and Want my teeth to be straight before I go back, I see the six month smiles and wonder if they will be OK for me, What kind of criteria do I have to meet in order to get these braces and what’s the system involved when compared with that of the old/normal brace/ train tracks. does it hurt more because if its a brace it’ll have to pull tighter wont it? please help as I need to get a move on, thank you for your time very much.
