Hi Darsh.. I feel my teeth are in such a state I migh not be able to have braces, I had gum disease for a long while that eventually subsided about a year ago now, Ive been waiting trying to let my gums recover before making a move on any orthadontic treatment. I do not want train tracks that’s one thing I can do without. I would ideally like a set of lingual braces, I think I asked Dr Hutchinson about what braces were best on here not to long ago and he was adamant that either traditional braces (tooth coloured) or linguals were the way to go, but do you think gum disease will have left any damage that could affect me getting braces? like I said I definatley haven’t got it anymore just want to know about any relation that might exist between them and gum disease? cheers
