rectangular wire

[ceramic mouth]

So I got a rectangular wire last adjustment and as far as i understood from you guys is that rectangular wires are used after teeth alignment is done but i still have a tooth (lateral insicor ) that is tilted to the side..in a shape close to this / when i smile. Can a rectangualr wire correct that? Thanks

I'm not sure, but I think it can help. I've only had braces for 3 months, but at my last adjustment, my ortho put a thick rectangular wire on the bottom. My lower arch is straight now, but I too have a tilted tooth. However, my lower arch is also canted, so really I have no idea and would love to know as well.

Thanks for your reply. I'm not sure too if the cant is corrected with the same wires that are used for alignment.. my lower arch is also canted but is still in a round wire. Hope someone would further explain this.

Pictures help. For us amateur armchair orthodontists we need to see exactly what you are talking about,
