Hi all, just a quick question, I have a couple of teeth which are shorter than the rest, due to grinding my teeth and wearing them away! I wonder how much is my ortho able to pull these down? I'd say they need maybe 3mm to be inline with the rest, is this do able? Thank you .

Yes, this is one of the easiest and fastest movements that happen with braces. As long as there is enough root, it will be fine.
