How Much Would it Cost to Fix an Overbite and Close a Gap Between My Teeth?

August 15th, 2014
Q.

Hi there!
I’m 28 years old and have a pretty big gap between my two front teeth, which bothers me more than my overbite. Obviously it would be ideal to get both sorted BUT my main concern is the gap because it’s so obvious. I’ve been looking at veneers but would the overbite prevent me from being able to have them? My dentist thinks braces would be better than veneers, but I thought I’d get a second opinion from your good self. How much would the quickest option cost? Thank you!

Which Type of Lingual Brace is Right for Me?

July 29th, 2014
Q.

Hello, I’m looking at braces but don’t know which ones are right for me. I actually didn’t know there were so many different types of lingual brace! Obviously it’s great to have a selection but I’m starting to get confused between all the different kinds. I have two quite big gaps between my teeth and some of the teeth at the front are a bit crooked, but apart from that they’re quite straight – not a complete mess! I want to start saving for braces so I’d just like to know which you think would be best for me?

What’s the Best Treatment for Fixing a Gap Between Teeth?

June 5th, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Qureshi. I have just turned 22 and recently I’ve noticed that there’s a gap between two of my teeth at the front. Well, I say noticed, it has always been there but it seems to have gotten bigger and I’m not imagining things, my boyfriend has noticed it too. Is there a treatment that will fix the gap? It’s knocked my confidence quite a lot you see. I understand that it won’t close overnight with any brace, but I’d prefer quick treatment, especially if the braces are ugly! Thanks.

What Is The Fastest Type Of Brace To Close The Gaps In Teeth?

January 2nd, 2014
Q.

Hello Dr Qureshi. I need to ask you what the easiest and fasted way to close gaps in teeth is? I have read a lot online about different wonder treatments that make me think the train tracs are pre-historic but then I read horror stories that make me think they’re the unavoidable reality. I don’t want train tracks but I would like to know what treatment works as well/better when closing gaps in teeth? Thank you for any advice you can provide me with in advance.

Having had diabetes, periodontal disease and now a tooth that’s moved I am now looking to fix it.

January 17th, 2012
Q.

I am a 47 yr.old woman with well maintained diabetes for 30 yrs. now. Over the years I have developed periodontal gum disease(from not visiting a dentist like I should have) and from this a tooth has moved out of it’s original position, making a gap appear. Now going to the dentist for regular exams and cleanings, I’m interested in having this problem fixed. I would like to know what your suggestion would be on how to fix this problem. The moved tooth is located in the front & on the bottom of my mouth so when I smile it is very visible and i’m very self conscious of this. Please help!

I have baby teeth and want implants and braces, advice?

October 6th, 2011
Q.

I am 24 years old and I have about 4 baby teeth still in my mouth. They are the fangy teeth. One of the baby teeth have fallen out recently however, which has left an ridiculous looking gap in my smile as the adult tooth was behind it and cannot be seen. The other 3 teeth have the adult teeth behind them. I am wondering what I can do about this. I also have an overbite. Do I qualify for lingual braces? invisalign? would I need surgery for this matter? Could I get implants? Please advise. I appreciate it.
