Front teeth uneven, Ortho won't listen!

#1 Post by Indels »

Hi Guys! I've had my braces for 13 months. I am to be debonded next Wednesday but my first teeth are not ready! Either the left or the right pop back behind the other just a bit. I've told my ortho for months of this concern, but she just says they will fix it once they remove my braces. I don't know how that is even possible! I don't know how to go about convining her that they are not even and what about my bottom teeth? Are they good ? I wish I went to a different ortho. I've attached pics for references. When one of the tooth is pushed out it looks longer as well. Please help, I do not know what to do.. You can see what I mean wit the length and it being pushed back in the last pic.

it's really hard to tell from these pictures but what could also be the case is that uneven wear on your teeth, your 33 is definitely much pointier than your 43 for instance

Well I also feel it with my tongue that the teeth are in even from the back. They've never been even like the others. Either one is pushed back or the other. I just don't know what to do. The ortho says they will fix that once they remove the braces, how though? I really don't want to spend another few thousand going to someone new but looks like I will have to =/

maybe you'll get an essix retainer with a small correction in it like invisalign but ask your ortho

then it's time to start talking with your ortho but imho slight imperfections add life, character and authenticity to your face
