I'm sorry I have no picture, but I only have 2 upper teeth, which are loose and broken, about to fall out. I can't eat anything but soup, and am so embarrassed I don't go out anywhere. I Avoid class reunions, company, I have a hard time maintaining weight. I have been scared of the oral surgery, even after all I went through, it scared me to death (not literally). But I am now ready to face it, but I'm so poor it's all I can do to pay taxes on my house, which is paid for. Just the bills and taxes maxes my finances.

Hmm, midline discrepancies. Very frustrating. The midline is a complicated concept because faces are seldom symmetrical and midlines between the eyes, center of the nose, center of lips, upper teeth, bottom teeth and chin seldom coincide. So compromises are frequently necessary. I understand...
Though it is hard to say for sure, It appears by the photos that you may have some cavities (caries lesions). I definitely think there is a chance that the teeth can be fixed, but you need a comprehensive evaluation (exam and xrays) by your dentist and treatment plan as soon...
I would recommend an in-person exam after the braces are removed for evaluation and treatment options (veneers, oral appliance to protect your teeth...).
