Hey guys, so do you think it's better to take the first advice to leave the upper gap/maybe close the gap or the 2nd advice which was to open the gap up in preparation to get an implant or bridge?

I went to an second orthodontist consultation. Different advice from the first consultation I went to regarding the upper gap I have from a missing tooth. Do you think the first advice or this advice could be better? The first advice was from the orthodontist that didn't see me in person but assesse...

Thanks for the replies. I booked another free consultation with another orthodontist practice for next week. I think they'll probably look at my teeth and probably take some pictures for orthodontist to look at and give me the prices.

Here are some of the pictures the assistant at the orthodontist took that they sent me as one image. I cropped the pictures of my face out.

I use an old Phillips Sonicare - not sure what the model is.... had it for a while I might need to upgrade at some stage.

that sounds like a good price, where in the UK/city do you get treatment?

Did you end up getting them, how is the treatment going if you did? being that it was an ortho school.

You're still young. I think it's more acceptable these days for people in there 20s having braces. I'm nearing my 40s and thinking of getting them.

Wow, was that with only the natural teeth or did you add fillings/caps?

Can I post a picture of my teeth here for feedback on if anything can be done in regards to symmetry of my teeth or do I have to post somewhere else? also how do I post an picture?

I didn't get the braces last year. Getting braces has popped back into my head. I feel it's a shame to get braces for a year or 2 and still not be able to get a good symmetry as my bottom middle six teeth are a bit of a mish mash of mixed teeth in wrong places. Anybody have any orthodontists to reco...

Good orthodontist in London? Has anyone got any advice about finding a good Orthodontist (in London)? I had braces as a teenager but have never been happy with the results, my teeth have moved and I also had wisdom teeth that helped move them that I later had removed. I'm in my late thirties. When I...
