seems like I've seen a thousand orthodontists/dentists and am still overwhelmed by the options.
I've had no bracework before, but desperately want to improve my smile. I was too stubborn at school to let them stick traintracks on me!
I've just been told I'm not suitable for Inman Aligners on my bottom teeth, due the the positioning of the bone. I could have them on the upper arch, but the orthodontist seemed to think I'd be better getting the whole lot done with linguals (as am a bit vain and still don't want visible work!)
I have quite a deep overbite, am quite crowded on my lower arch and am slightly crowded on my upper arch, with smaller-than-they-should-be teeth-next-to-front-teeth. Apologies for the lack of dental knowledge, I can never remember!
My concerns with Invisalign is their discolouration, that I'll probably lose a tray, and that I don't want to stop snacking all day long!
As for linguals, the last orthodontist reccommended extracting one lower front tooth to make room for moving the others around. Would this alter my profile? I've heard extractions can do that...
Would a combination of Inman on top teeth and linguals on lower work?
Can anyone offer me a opinion based on the photos here?:
*oops, photos from the inside not working, will put up tomorrow from work.
Thanks! Looking forward to hearing from you
