Can braces help me and give me more confidence?

March 1st, 2012
Q.

I’ve always been embarrased about my teeth (when talking, smiling in photos)I’m in my 20’s and feeling more concious of this now. My lower jaw seems further back than my top, and the teeth on the lower jaw are cramped up. The teeth on my top jaw arent bad, a few chips. The main thing that bothers me is both my lower and top jaw also seem very narrow, so dont really have much of a smile. I know cosmetic dentistry isnt cheap, but is something that really bothers me and would love to have a nice smile. Just wanting advice on what would be best, if treatment would need maintaining in future and if i am at the right age to have it done or should i wait Would lingual braces help me at all? Thankyou.
