971163
Dude  . . . . you need more advise on showing clearer pictures than the condition of your teeth. . . . .\n\nYour teeth are probably not THAT BAD . . .overbite is easily corrected by a good dentist.  He will probably put you in braces. There is now a brace that is hardly noticeable, not like when I was a kid and the mouth looked like a metal junk yard. In the meantime keep you mouth and teeth healthy by brushing and flossing once or twice a day,  I know that sounds like a nag, but trust me, it really works.

Your'e clean Baby; a new start.  Yahooo!!!!!\n\nAdvice OK here goes-\nOK as soon as you can in a day or two start brushing the gums.  Buy 10 rolls of DENTAL TAPE (not dental floss), Spread em out.  Your desk, your car, at the office, tape a pack to the remote, tape one the your monitor, the eliptical, etc. . .  Out of sight out of mind.  Start flossing,  When you go for your 1 month evaluation which I'm sure your dentist scheduled you for.  You will smile he will poke your gums and there wont be any blood!  whoopee.  \n\nDental tape is great its thick so it don't break easy. Floss is too thin it breaks and is too thin to get through  those tight spots. \n\nCongradulations on your clean start,  keep up the good work!\nGood Luck,

In order of importance......\n\n#1 your gums (a healthy dentition will set the stage for your restorative work, your ortho, and options to replace missing teeth). Visit your dentist, if you haven't already for an exam, periodontal evaluation, and cleaning. Make sure you're gums are healthy. He/She will come up with a treatment plan for you, and let you know if braces are an option. \n#2 restorative work. Get your restorative work done, fillings, crowns, RCT, whatever it may be. This is the second most important procedure next to taking care of your gums.\n#3 braces if you're a good candidate. Be prepared to pay around 2400-4000, but they are worth it. You will see an orthodontist for this procedure. \n#4 bridges, implants, partials....for missing teeth. This will fall under the treatment your dentist prescribed for you.

believe it or not i just got my braces off on tuesday, after having them for 2 yrs and 4 months. i went through pretty much everything orthodontal from rubber bands to a palate expander to retainers and "tongue cribs" (you don't even want to know); I think u get the picture. So i guess u could say I'm pretty much an expert on this sort of thing. Soft foods, of course, would be the thing to go with. I'd honestly have to say soup. Ice cream's good too. Or yogurt or even mac and cheese - basically anything soft and anything that u feel comfy eating. Good luck - and I'm sure your smile will soon be absolutely gorgeous!

Talk to your doctor and to your dentist and see what they have to say. I would probably say it's okay (except for the painkillers, possible), but to be on the safe side, TALK TO YOUR DENTIST AND YOUR DOCTOR!

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

I would make sure you really needed those teeth taken out . for one when you start getting rid of teeth you lose taste buds, ask anyone with dentures. as far as pain its not too bad because you get lots of pain meds. 4 at one time is a little rough and the front ones are worse then the back

You can always get clear braces (I know a few adults who have them and you can't tell they have braces unless you really look).  It can never hurt to boost your self-esteem, so if you feel it will then go for it!  It's nice that your husband loves you just the way you are though!

How insecure is the man that wants his woman's teeth to fall out so she is stuck with him?\n\nGod, get rid of that jerk, your tooth is the least of your problems.\n\nTo answer your question, go to a clinic at a University offering dental programs.  As part of dental training the students are required to work on real patients under the supervision of a licensed dentist.

Free may not be the best option.  I know your teeth are not the best from your existing condition but, you do not want to have bad dentistry done and end up in pain or even worse without teeth.  I would recommend doing your research and save your money.  Find the best doctor and have a beautiful smile for life.  You can contact a local laboratory to find out who they prefer.  They see many of these cases every day from different dentist. If you are stuck on free still you can contact your local university and see if they are doing research on your condition.

Oh My God, \nI sure hope you are not going to try to fix your teeth yourself.  You will be heading for disaster!! You have to go to a orthodontist.  First, go to a regular dentist so he can clean your teeth, fix any thing wrong, then he will send you to the orthodontist for braces.  Those two doctors will work together to give you the best dental health.  If you start messing with your teeth, you could end up with major, major problems.  Please go to a regular dentist asap. \nGood luck!!

You should definately get a second opinion. I wouldn't do sedation, that's a bit much. And like you said, she is going to be losing those teeth anyway. Before I agreed to that, I'd need a logical answer as to why it's important for her teeth to be capped at such a young age and I'd need to get the same answer from multiple dentists.

Visit an orthodontist.  They have an appliance that can help.  If not treated, buck teeth, speech problems and low self esteem are all a factor.

Get ZOOM whitening from the dentist if you can afford it. They use that on all the makeover shows. If you gotta go low budget, use Crest whitening strips....they work too!!! But you have to use them everyday!!
