Why are u against braces? U can do invislign which is technically braces but not metal, they are simpy clear retainers that u were all day, and every 2 or 3 weeks u get a new set to move you teeth. Or u could see if they can just use a retainer.

Your on braces right???...so dont worry its only a matter of time be4 things get set right! I fell in love with my girlfriend 6 years ago and for a majority of time she had braces on.... \nBad teetch are a major problem because your smile gets really a big beating. but all the same braces hide the defect to large extent by saying that your taking care of the problem.\nBut in GENERAL!!...count your plus's before you think about your teeth....and from what you say.....YOUR TEETH ARE A REALLY SMALL PROBLEM!!!....Dont worry about them

AS AN ADULT, THIS TOOTH WILL NOT MOVE WITHOUT ORTHODONTICS. W/O BRACES OR W/O INVISALIGN THIS WON'T BE POSSIBLE. MANY ADULTS HAVE BRACES NOWADAYS SO GETTING BRACES OUGHT NOT KEEP YOU FROM WANTING TO GET A JOB. THEREE ARE CERTAIN DENTAL FILLINGS (COMPOSITES) THAT CAN ALSO BE PLACED TO CLOSE A GAP. BY THER WAY ORTHODONTIST NEVER PULL TEETH - - THEY REFER YOU TO YOUR DENTIST FOR BABY TOOTH EXTRACTIONS.

Ask your general dentist, if you have one.  If you don't have a general dentist, then you need to find one and go for a checkup before seeing the orthodontist to make sure you don't have any cavities or gum disease and to get your teeth cleaned before having braces put on. \n\nDr. R.

When you have a healthy bite, you can clench your teeth such that the front teeth miss each other but the molars contact each other (tooth contact).  If one tooth is too short, the opposing tooth will grow out to close the space between them.  If a tooth is lost and not replaced, the opposite tooth may grow out without resistance and the teeth on either side of the missing tooth may tilt sideways to fill the gap, potentially ruining the alignment and proper bite.  This could lead to further tooth loss and should be seen by a dentist to get sound advice.

They have now clear plastic braces you cannot see. Check with a dentist. Doubt that insurance will pay for any of it today. You may have to get a loan.

Get laminates.  They are thin very strong and cheaper than fillings or crowns, and the results are spectacular!

I went to see an orthodontist recently for the same problem after having had braces years ago. She told me I would need braces for a while to correct the problem. Apparently in some cases a retainer won't be enough to shift teeth back into place.

I think there are invisible braces now. They fit over your teeth like a retainer. You get fitted for them by your orthodontist and they come in sets that you where for a few months each.

Although I am not familiar with this, the problem isn't with your teeth - its in the gums.  Try proper brushing techniques.

Yes if it is small, Say about a milimeter they can be bonded.  \nIf you have longer teeth then you may even go up to 1.5mm without it looking toooo funky.\nIf your teeth are short and healthy and your not a heavy grinder, you may be able to veneer them with porcelain.  \n\n\nBut what you really need to ask is why do you have it?\nWhat is your age, history of the gap, recent or developmental,  your habits that may be causing it, and so much more.  If you don't do a carefull history,  then if the gap is caused by something your doing then it may come back after you close it.  If your dentist just says yep I'll do with out thinking, be carefull.

Don't try to adjust your retainer.  Make an appointment to see your general dentist or your orthodontist so he or she can do it for you.

my dental hygienist told me that once the gums recede, you can't correct the problem, only prevent further receeding.  My problem is that I grind my teeth.  I now have a guard that keeps my teeth separated while I sleep.  Talk to your dentist or dental hygienist, they should know how to help.

umm i used to have braces and i have a water pic and it worked awesome and you can change the pressure of the water so you can make it as soft or as hard as you want then you might want to take some mouth wash and rinse your mouth so you get that clean feeling.  hope it all works out for you
