Best Way to Correct Bad Orthodontics ?

November 26, 2011
Asked By:Live and Learn in Oshawa, ON

I had six month smiles done by a dental practitioner not a qualified orthodontist and ended up with teeth that are pulled very far forward, outside my natural arch making it very narrow as well as pushing my lips out and making my whole face appear fatter. I want to know the best way to bring my teeth back into their natural arch as well as hopefully get my facial aesthetics back? (thinner lip and philtrum and thinner cheeks) i've seen one orthodontist so far and he advised extractions.
