Hey Dr Qureshi. I Would Like Lingual Braces But My Veneer Keeps Falling Off And Causing Problems. What Should I Do?

December 9th, 2013
Q.

Hey Dr Qureshi, I had removable braces for 3-4 years (age 13-16) to help straighten my top teeth, but after a year of no braces my teeth were crooked. Last year in August when I was 18 I had a veneer on one of my bottom teeth, however the fake tooth had fallen off twice, thus my tooth has now been covered with cement. I am now stuck because I want to have lingual braces, although that one tooth is causing problems, because if I have the cement taken off the tooth would be sensitive. What do you suggest that I do? Regards, I look forward to your advice.

Do the attachments found on lingual braces remain completely hidden?

Q.

Hi, after doing a lot of research on the web to determine if I think i’m suitable for invisalign i feel that i should be okay for it and that it probably is the best option for me in regards to how discreet it is. i wondered if you could send me some actual photos of a user with invisalign rather than the images i’ve seen on the internet that don’t look very real. i’m considering lingual braces because they’re completely behind the teeth aren’t they? do lingual brace attachments remain completely hidden? thanks for your time, i’m just looking fir a rough idea before i attend my consultation on friday.
