UNDOING PREVIOUS EXTRACTIONS/HELP NEEDED

#1 Post by secondtimewithbraces »

So after doing more research on braces and extractions
I realised due to extraction 4 teeths when i was younger and had braces here are the side effects i have:

-sunken in face
-sunken in jaw / receeded jaw
-smaller upper lips
-sleep apnea

I always wonder why my mouth and jaw looked slightly off compared to rest of my features (nose,head) etc and at 19 i should not be experiencing sleep apnea


ANYBODY KNOW WHERE IN ENGLAND I CAN UN-DO PREVIOUS EXTRACTIONS WITH BRACES AND FILL IT DENTAL IMPLANTS?

I am in exactly the same boat. I also live in England. Im 31 and only found out two years ago that my jaw/mouth/lower face is a by product of the many years of braces I had as a child. I've tried in vain to get help via the nhs for two years, but they highlight the problem and then tell me I do not meet criteria to get help. The advice ive been given is to 'accept it', since little can be done to help me now. They also cannot give me a recommendation to go private. I'm at my wits end and have come on this site to see if anybody has any advice. Have you found a resolution to your problem?

Thank you
