I Want The Look Of Buck Teeth, How Can This Be Achieved?

How can I find an orthodontist willing to give me buck teeth and charge the normal price? So far, none will do it but one and he wanted $7000 without even examining me first. There must be someone that will do it. I love buck teeth so...don't ask why. :)

Everyone is different some people have front teeth that are more forward in the arch and come down straight but still look buck, others just stick out at an angle. I think mine are slightly buck I had a brace to move them back but there was not much room as my bottom teeth got in the way. Just make an oppointment with your orthodontist about your buck teeth, then when you have the examination tell him/her exactly what you want ! P.S. You would probably need to wear a retainer at night indefinitely to keep them in position or they would move back from the natural pressure of your lips.

Well, I actually did it but was just looking to see what a professional has to say. Good advice and, yes, it's very possible if you find the right orthodontist.
