My upper teeth are the issue. My two upper canines are very high up in my gums, one more than the other, and protrudes a bit so I get sores on my lip from it often. My uoper teeth amsp arent aligned straight with my face. Kind of like tom cruise before he got his aligned. I dony care about thr overbite issue much but i care most about the upper canines being so severely misplaced.
I had braces years ago, i had 4 teeth pulled out and my teeth are now pretty straight. But what bothers me is that my smile became asymmetrical. Before the braces it wasn't. The teeth on the right side of the picture are more caved in and my whole face on this side is more caved in. It's not a big thing, but I was wondering if those teeth could be pushed out a bit and if it would make my face more symmetrical. If it's possible, could it be done with invisalign? Or i'd need braces?
I have an asymmetrical face and Im already getting invisalign and eventually I will have to wear rubberbands on the left side of my jaw but I would like to know If this is going to make my face symmetrical? my teeth arent super crooked but im not happy with my smile but its nothing serious and its mainly a preference to get invisalign for me to make me feel more confident
My midline is off centre. My upper jaw slants down, and my arch is asymmetrical so my over jet is quite uneven. My teeth protrude out far more on one side than the other. I have had traditional orthodontic treatment before and while there has been improvement, but a relapse too, and obviously my teeth are still quite messed up. The question is, which of my listed problems i.e., midline, arch asymmetry, slant and overjet can be helped by Invisalign?
My main issue was the can't of my front 4 teeth, creating an asymmetrical smile(as shown in photo). However I'm really struggling to meet the daily requirements(my job requires a lot of face to face meetings and they do create a slight lisp). Plus the idea of wearing plastic trays for life is growing far less appealing. Can my smile be fixed with veneers instead? My bite and rear teeth are fine. 27 years old.
When I see myself in photos or videos, I can see that I have an asymmetrical face and that like that goes down like when you get older on only one side of the cheeks. I'm only 22 so it bothers me a lot. Even when I smile I can see only half of my lower teethe which makes it look worse! I will be getting invasalign soon to get my teethe and gummy smile right but I don't know if it will fix this problem at all.
The only thing is, I don't have the gummy smile that many have as a symptom but my teeth and bite were off and I have invisalign now which I have been doing over a year now. My face just seems long, and asymmetrical. Thank you in advance for your time.
Hi I'm a 25 year old considering invisalign, My upper teeth currently slope down to the left side of my face. As a result of this my lower teeth are right of center when I bite down, and my jaw is misaligned. I've had braces from 16-18 and I believe the jaw misalignment was a result of that. Later I saw a dentist who told me that my jaw was misaligned due to a bad bite (and not due to jaw skeletal asymmetry). Would invisalign be effective? And be able to raise some of my upper teeth vertically?
I had braces at 12, now I'm turning 20 and the upper and lower plate don't match up, ie the midpoint of upper and lower are at different places. Not just the teeth, but upper and lower lips don't match up either,my face looks slightly distorted and the lips don't match the teeth in the middle either. I am desperate, but the dentists so far said it takes too much work so its not worth it. Please let me know whether theres still hope with Invisalign. Pictures attached, Thanks in advance.
The midline of my upper teeth is not aligned to that of my lower ones (about 3mm off), and I have two "bites" - one makes my face really asymmetrical and the other one's better. I wonder if Invisalign can move one side of my upper teeth more than the other, so in the end I'll have only the more symmetrical bite. I asked a couple of orthodontists and one said it can be done w/ combination of rubber band. Is it true? How long will it take?
