Can my crooked smile be corrected with my braces? My orthodontist is ready to remove braces soon but even though my teeth are straight I will have a crooked smile still. I paid alot for braces and was supposed to have them on 18months and it has been 2.5 years. I dont mind about the time as long as everythibg is fixed after. Right not it looks like my teeth will be straight but my smile will still be crooked? Should I mention this to my orthodontist or is it not a orthopedic issue? Thanks
