Now, my one bottom tooth has shifted so much that people remark on it when they are talking to me (especially those people who knew me for those 3 years that I wore braces). I feel very self-conscious because my bottom teeth are very visible when I speak because of how my mouth is shaped.
The orthodontists I consulted with have given me 2 options:
1) Wear braces on only the lower teeth to align them, however my teeth will still fan out.
2) Remove 4 bicuspids to relieve the crowding on my bottom teeth and to make my teeth more straight up and down.
I am in my mid-20s and I am a single gal...I am unhappy with the situation that I am in. I don't know why I wasn't given option 2 when I was a teenager. I want perfect teeth and I am a perfectionist...but I don't want to appear to be so vain. Ugh
