I have an overbite and a recessed chin. Because I also have a narrow palate, Damon braces are my first consideration. The issue however is that I have a long chin and dont know if fixing my overbite would even be worth it.I also have a wide jaw, and was wondering if expanding my palate as much as these braces would be capable of would make my face wider. Judging from this picture alone, Wouldyou say my overbite is severe? And would Damon braces widen my face, not just my palate?
I just want to no that is really what my ortho have said to me that I can't correct my teeth problems ( overbit, crossbit, front teeth crowding ) without damon system, unless I extract 4 teeth, I have consulted another orthodontic and asked him about damon system, he told me that I had to trust him that damon system is just a marketing tool, and so we have proceeded in the treatment until he told me that I will need teeth to be extracted! And that is not an option for me, I can't live with another face!
I've had traditional braces in the past which I had taken of in 2014, I haven't since worn my plastic retainer. My fault, I know. Which is why I'm seeking treatment again! I have found an ortho who claims he can take my teeth from a C to an A*and correct all issues I've described that he diagnosed in a consultation. I'm trying to get all the advice I can before going ahead with treatment as it's very expensive. I want what he claims he can do. Is it possible? Thanks in advance.
I had six month smiles done, and after they were taken off I realized my teeth flare forward. I can just barely close my lips now, I'm so unhappy with my smile! Not only did he shave off the majority of my teeth, he made my mouth and lips puffy. I wanted to know if Damon Braces could fix my flaring teeth/overbite and line everything up properly? I went to an orthodontist who doesn't provide Damon braces and he had said the only way he could fix everything was with extractions, which scare me.
