How to achieve straight teeth if you have gum disease?

alana0315
My two front teeth are crooked and overlapping.. I've been trying for a couple or years & a lot of money to get my teeth in good health for braces but I found out I have gum disease.. I had gum surgery and still have gum disease.. My dentist said she would not clear me for braces with active gum disease so is they any other options for straight teeth? Maybe veneers or am I stuck with ugly teeth for the rest of my life?
