tinthepark tinthepark I have this issue and I planned on getting implants. But I did some research and it says it’s a permanent option? I never read anything about them having to be replaced every 10 years lol they’re supposed to last 25+ years which is considered permanent..... but BREAST implants are supposed to be replaced every 10 years. Maybe your ortho is confused

How did your teeth turn out? I also have missing lateral incisors and a central diastema that I'd like to close.

@@Stressed_PhD_0831 so my teeth have actually moved a lot closer and look really normal but crooked. I get them taken off in June this year but it made me a little more confident. It also helps that we’re wearing mask.

@@618creationsco7 Hi! Thanks for replying to my comment! Could you be more specific about what the braces did for you, please? Did you get the implants in the end? I also feel more confident wearing a mask, although every one has seen my teeth before.

@@Stressed_PhD_0831 so I had the 2 teeth side incisors missing, on one side the canine started moving in that space (pre braces) with braces both of my canines are now my incisors. My doc just shaped them to look a little more square than pointy. So no implants are needed.

Rebecca my dentist recommended to me the same thing after 6 years of treatment my teeth looked like a peace of shit I wasn't satisfied then came back to her she couldn't do more . it has been 4 years now that I have taken off my braces and always ashamed to smile because of my teeth even though I 've been told that I have a courageous smile my teeth can't help keep it that courageous .... I need help ... I'm losing my confident 😢😢😢

Rebecca Cuspids rarely end up looking like laterals.

That’s a really bad choice you did , you have done damage to your real teeth and bite. It can cause pain and headache in the future. If you don’t have the teeth do implant thats the right solution not damaging what you have

same here, i just put on my braces, did it work eventually with you?

Have you thought of scarring and later abcesses because of all the movement into the wrong positions and then still having to get a root canal. I think the teeth should be moved as little as possible.

how old are you? And how is the pain after getting the implant like ?

I had the same procedure done and it gave me sleep apnea, TMJ and misaligned teeth. The reason for the gaps in your teeth now is to have more space for your tongue in your upper palate.

@@balder6337 ohh man thankfully I had none of those problems you mentioned! Did you get it sorted out after?

@@95ern I went to another specalist who gave me a sleep apnea test kit, this was like a 3 weeks ago. He'll help me with the TMJ aswell! The results of the test said I had moderate breathing problems and that there was enough proof that I needed to expand my upper palate due to these problems rather than pull it together like the first ortodontist had done

@@balder6337 sleep apnea seems scary, I wish you best of luck man! I’m sure you’ll find some good solutions out there!

yhh my dentist want to do same for me. after my accident my 2 front teeth shift to the right and left a growing space on the left. am wearing braces now to correct the spaces but the dentist wants to add a 3rd front teeth to close up the space on the left side. idk if i should rather have it closed up with braces or allow the 3rd front teeth

I Klezun why must your incisors be removed?

Erica Oh sameee

Do u end up getting the implant? I have a missing canine tooth and need braces. But I rather leave the gap because I dnt want a fake tooth

@@abbb8238 hi, i have a mising tooth as well and i don’t recommend keeping the gap (esp if the gap is huge). Huge gap without a tooth can cause the loss of jaw bones. So implant is the optimal solution. For my case, i got braces and dont get implant because it was rather expensive and i dont want to leave such a huge gap during the process of having braces. I had the orthodontist close all the gaps (without my missing tooth) and shape the tooth next to the missing one to look like it :))

@@justsomeone9819 omg I have that too and I am wanting to do that (close the gaps without the missing teeth) but i am not sure and didn’t ask my orthodontist about it (any advice?)

@@justsomeone9819 + I have had braces for one year and the missing teeth are in the front so I am scared it will look bad

+AvA Orthodontics & Invisalign I am planning to go for option number four, I have one missing tooth (just like your model teeth but just one's missing) what should happen after the braces are taken off? what do you call option 4?

Same here i have a ONE missing lateral incisor teeth. and I prefer not to use fake teeh. Which one will be the best for me?

it's been a year, what did you finally do?

KushiroZD how did it go?? i also don’t have upper lateral incisors

I have the same missing tooth. Please tell me how it went. Going to have the same thing done, only my ortho is saying in order to get my teeth aligned I should get one front lower incisor removed.

I’m going to have the same thing done except it’s my right💀

Harmony Moore hey there! I’m considering getting this done. I’m currently looking for some insight from people that are currently going through this procedure and people already done. Do you mind sharing how your progress is going? What procedure did you choose? How happy are you with your results so far? Thank you so much for your input.

Hey, how did this go for you? how long did you have the braces on for? I have a lateral incisor missing too but on my right.. my dentist recommended the 2nd option too.

were the same. hayst...

Same😭

TheSignificantMaid yeah me too 😢

Casidhe McNeil how does it look like

Do you like your teeth now? I love hearing people's outcones

@@HillbillyYEEHAA I do! I just need to save up to get implants for new canines. Right now I’m using a partial and I’m not a huge fan of how it looks.

Have you done it? Did it work?

+xxSweetCandyKarlixx ! you orthodontist can advise you better regarding your question.

Could be for that to probably. When I saw this I thought of those people that lost a baby tooth but dont have an adult tooth growing.

I had the procedure done where the close the space, another orthodontic informed me that it gave me sleep apnea and TMJ. I wish I got implants but the first orthodontic never told me about them.

@@the1realktmriderk560what’s that? When missing or when you fixed it with braces?

Summer Davis Same with me. I got my braces on August 2015. I have 2 gaps where i'm missing the two teeth, and I just want the fake teeth to be put in with my braces on but my dentist never talked to me about that. I know some other people who are missing the two I-teeth and they have fake teeth in with their braces. My orthodontists have measured my spaces twice but nothing ever happened.

+Jordi kaplan share your before and after with us please. we like to see your progress.

please share your improvements after getting your braces. I would like to think for the best option for me before having my braces. I think the option four is better than others.

Tom, without proper diagnosis and diagnostic records we cannot answer your question. Please discuss your concern with your current orthodontist.

ask if you can get an implant instead? covering the gap will work, but it wont look good

keep as many of your teeth as you can, and as much tooth structure as possible. get more opinions, figure out other options and or get away from the dentists! the less you mess with things the better. You do not want to lose your tooth because another one is missing. also not everyone's body accepts implants.

What did you do? Are you satisfied with the results?

I have this problem too my orthodontist gave me 2 choices either to extract the other laternal or implant one

bayan ayb do the implant much better in the long run and as my dentist says u won’t have a flat smile

Odessa Adams Forbes nothing yet, I was offered the implant. I was told my gap is too big for the braces method

@@DeezNuts-sy8uy isn't painful??

also when in side view my top teeth looks buck teeth

+Naser Gashi we need more information with exam and x-ray to advise!

David Payne, Hi! can you tell me how your process has gone? I am currently in the same position you was in at the time of writing the comment. I cannot stand my teeth after the orthodontist took my braces off too soon, and stopped all treatment. Now I have 0 confidence and want to reopen the gap to have replacement incisors. I would really like to know what you have had done please :)

Hello, I am going through a similar case, how has it gone?

+MavzC Torres of course.

+AvA Orthodontics & Invisalign -me too but how?

Even i have the same situation

Aija Āriņa i have that

Katarina Me too. That's why I am asking. ;) do you think about fixing it? I just don't know how it gonna work. I live in country where most dentists don't know about this problem.

Aija Āriņa my dentist want to make space for implants but i'm not sure that i want it because i will wait 3 years for implants because i'm 15 and it will be even worse because my canines are very close to my front teeth and if he moved them back i will literally look like a rabbit

Aija Āriņa I live in serbia and dentists are also not very familiar with this problem

Katarina I'm from Latvia... Yea, that's what I'm afraid off, that I will look even more embarrassing than now.

+Ieva Girnyte Leva, to correct the midline orthodontist require space on the opposite side. however because we don't have full diagnostic record of your teeth and bite we cannot make a recommendation. why not discussing it with your orthodontist and requesting some more information regarding the treatment plan and please keep us posted. we are excited to know what you decided and how your smile will look like eventually.

+Ieva Girnyte Hey I advise that you do not go through with the orthodontics. It will cause you alignment, chewing, and posture issues. After your orthos you will likely have awful tmj and it costs loads of cash to reverse the orthodontics process. regular braces are bad for you too, but when having extractions with moving a lot of teeth it really messes up your bite orthodontists keep this info under the table because they only want money Look it up online if you type in orthodontics causes tmj

I had the same problem. i honestly HATE my smile. I have gone through so many options and my only option and the best was to get the implant in my right side because if not my smile would be unaligned and trust me it is not cute. I hate smiling. I am restarting my braces treatment in a few weeks.

@@CristinaQV do you like your smile now? I want to get an implant too

i have the same one missing too but i want to have brackets but is it possible to like glue the missing teeth to the brackets so that i don’t have a gap? how did you do

Hey I’m getting my braces in 2 days and they want to do this treatment with me how did urs turn out because I’m scared my canines are going going to look more yellow

i did this treatment and it looks terrible. hands down my biggest insecurity

@@lauuvvx7420 I used to have temporary fake teeth in place for my lateral incisors attached to the brackets of my braces. It wasn't noticeable that they were fake but I didn't like how it would move when I bit hard food and that I would need to wear them throughout my life even after my braces are done so I switched to having them removed and having canine substitution done!

@@kayyy9804 Hi sorry for the late reply! My dentist said that the estimate time for mine would take at least 2 years minimum. The procedure still isnt done. First, they made me wear a palatal expander for months and currently theyre correcting my midline and moving my canines beside my front teeth. I'm liking them so far and luckily, I haven't experienced lock jaw like what the others have said. They do shave down your canines to make them look like incisors :(( and I noticed that canines are naturally yellower than incisors but it personally doesn't really bother me that much. Good luck with yours!! Would love to hear about your updates too.

+Tris Prior not really. have you consult with your dentist regarding possibility of cavities or root canal treatment?

Rebecca hi Rebecca I am missing both lateral incisors as well I am wearing partial dentures which I hate having to take out at night. I have read a lot that moving the canine forward does affect your jaw bone structure and can cause severe discomfort and pain. I know someone who is having it reversed. I am not happy with dentures so here I am looking for alternative that's won't break the bank. 😂

Netty400

@@Netty4000 i had gaps closed (1 missing lateral) as a teenager but for some reason (thankfully) not all my back teeth were moved forward. However one oremolar was partially rotated and I had a weird gap on one side (not that I was bothered by it too much) . Later I got a deep overbite (after many years of not wearing retainers) and while treating that. The orthodontist derotated the premolar and opened space for an implant and now my bite is way - uneven wear tear I guess on the side of premolar that wasn't used as it shoukd be. The issue i had though was though space was opened up, the rotated tooth roots moved out of bone. It also wasn't able to rotate fully so it is partially stuck. I'm waiting for some healing and wondering if it would be worthwhile moving it back to bone (orthodontist said safest move it to rotate it back like it was which will decrease the canine/front tooth gap but not fully, which compromises space for implant. The other option is to torque that root inward but that has the risk of exposing root on other side/bite even hitting more heavily on that 1 tooth. I'm actually having more pain post 2nd treatment with the opened gap. Any tips on what should be my next steps?

@@amritarajamani wow that’s a lengthy treatment with unsatisfactory results. You might want to start searching for a orthodontist who specifically specialized in congenital missing tooth. I had missing laterals and my Orthodontist recommended wearing braces for 18 months to create space for implants. I did that 2!years ago and I’m happy I did. I now have permanent lateral implants in. It’s and expensive treatment but worth the money as my orthodontist said moving the Canine from their proper position in the mouth can create additional problems and pain as they don’t belong in the lateral space. Not to mention you would have to twist them and shave them down. Implants is a great option but expensive and not covered by health insurance as it’s considered cosmetic where I live.

Namrata shahu 24 months or more

Nora Vlogs you would be asleep

@@kdogyt53 not necessarily

Maybe you can use braces to move your wisdom teeth (if you already have them)to fill the gaps . I’m myself will have to remove my two first molars because of decay but my wisdom teeth haven’t grown yet so i have to wait

@@happygirlohyeah7714 can this be possible? Move the wisdom tooth?

@@JohnnyQuetie yup you can

I'm getting braces and 3 teeth removed, is your teeth gonna a close the gaps while they get tightened by the braces, or are you stuck with the gaps?

JOO HYUK same I have 2 empty teeths kms

Same..

kpop ey

Go for the second thing it just closes up the gap

Matija Covic ako ima malu vilicu onda ne moze valjda jer ce imati problema sa zagrizom

Kiana Hill please tell me what’s about

what will u do

Can you ask them to make you a retainer with temporary teeth to fill the space?

They told me that two but now that im 18 i have to wait till im 20 only that i have temporary teeth in the gaps so it doesn't look as bad

Ana what did you get done?

@@briannam1850 so i got a fixed retainer (it's the one behind your teeth) and my orthodontist somehow attached two perfectly fitted teeth on the fixed retainer. I can't take them off if i wanted to (which i would never do :') ) and they just look like normal other teeth. Now i have to wait till i am 20 to get implants since my jaw is apparently still growing. But im really happy with what i have right now :))

Ana omg thank u, i think i’m going to mention this to my orthodontist since i have nothing done on my teeth yet:) thank you so much

the level of force applied on the teeth is similar to other type of treatment.

+Grace Crumley im the same way. I have only one missing on my right side but i still have braces. I've had them for about 2 years now and i still have a year to go. I also need to wait till im 18. After i get my braces i wear the retainer and im getting invisalign trays with a fake tooth. I'm not sure if that's an option to get Invisalign where you get your ortho work done but i would ask about it.

+Grace Crumley there are a few option. the most common ones are Maryland bridge, a clear retainer with a fake tooth in it as Emma stated.

Emma Rose I have the Invisalign with the fake tooth two

cant we just get braces to close the gap?

onedirection. Apparently, according to my orthodontist, you cant close that amount of space with braces.

It made my cheekbones less wide when they closed the gap, and I got sleep apnea and TMJ from it another orthodontics informed me.

But does your face look off or is it just smaller? How did u solve the sleep apnea?

@@alexareynoso5017 if the second option is canine substitution, do your research I read a certain face shape shouldn’t get this, and a top orthodontist office I went to didn’t want to do this to me either being it was too risky and could mess up my profile

Nina Espinosa do you live in England? If so it is free under the age of 18. I'm not sure about other countries

In England is free if your case is really bad. I lot of people are not approved.

Me and I m scared...I wanted to do the second one which is shown in this video but my dentist said it's not possible 😒😥

What do they do in the last one?

Larin L what’s the last one about

I never even needed braces :p
