Q.
Hi Dr Patel, I Have really badly crossed lower teeth and my upper teeth have started overlapping slightly, I don’t want traditional braces to fix these and have looked at lingual braces, the issue is I think I may have mild gum disease? my gum is slightly red and sensitive to knocks (catching with the a toothbrush usually results in bleeding) but only at the front of my mouth? would this stop me getting lingual braces, i’m thinking about issues with brushing etc.? and if so how do I combat it so I can then move on to actually having them straightened? any feedback would be great, thanks.
