Front 2 teeth s protruding, having problem in smiling and talking. Will braces be helpful? Treatment period?
Patient: Hi,I'll be 23 in a couple of months. My front two teeth are protruding. Though it is not visible when I close my mouth I am having a problem in smiling or talking freely. Will braces be helpful? What will be duration and cost of the entire treatment? Also I dont want anybody to notice that I am wearing braces. Please help. Doctor: Hello,Welcome to healthcaremagic forum.From the details mentioned,its clear that your upper anteriors are protruded resulting in proclination of teeth as well as incomplete lip seal.Orthodontic appliances may help you out in such situation.Depending on the severity of malalignment,treatment duration can be planned.If you are willing to get invisible braces,which are very costly,you can ask regading this with your orthodontist.Hope this helps.Take care.
