My teeth are edge to edge. I really wanted braces to correct my bite. I went to a private dentist he said I could have braces no problem & was willing to do them. I wanted another opinion so went to the orthodontist everyone gets referred to. I went there when I was 14. I’m now 22 & they have told me I can’t have braces as my jaw is to far back & I’d need surger. should I get another opinion?All I want is nice teeth and being told there is nothing I can do is heart breaking. I never smile :(
