Braces & Tooth Growing Strangely Question...?!
Question: Braces & Tooth Growing Strangely Question!.!.!.!?
ok!.!.!.so this is whats happening!. I need braces on my top teeth and on my bottom teeth because of my overbite!. im 13 btw!. I had an xray of my mouth done and when looking at it, the orthodontist said that my left caninine adult tooth is growing diagonaly, so that's why my baby canine hasn't fallen out yet!. Instead of the adult canine growing on the front, over my baby one, it is growing behind and i can even feel it on the roof of my mouht (it's still way in the gums, u cant see it because it's not even poking out of my gums or anything - it's just well u get it, my baby canine hasn't fallen out and u cant see the adult 1!. So, there is a chance that even if i pull the baby one out, the adult one wont grow!. if it DOES grow, then it'll take 2 - 4 years too and that means i cant get braces!. it also will not grow straight and i'll have to put braces on it!. the'll be a gap!. SO, there's a very very very slim chance like 1/100 that it'll grow!. The best option is to get braces, then go to a facial surgeon where he'll cut out a piece of the roof of my mouth, attach a thing to my adult tooth, connect it to a chain and tie it to my braces!. Eeach month they'll be tighteing and pulling it so eventually it comes out and is straight!.!.!.so, yeahh, quite a painfull procedure!. it starts with an e but dont remember wat it's called!. Does anyone know or has experienced it!?!? Also, for my braces, im paying $6400 and it doesn't include the tooth thing!.!.!.is that expensive!? Does anyone recomend any cheap but good quality orthodontists in adelaide!?!? Please help!!! thanks!!! Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I had that done as well!. My left canine was growing diagonally into the roots of my incisor, so it was a sort of dental emergency!. I had to have it done before the braces were put on, so the surgeon could get at the roof of my mouth!.
It took a year or so for the tooth to grow in after being pulled by the orthodontist each month!.
It was quite painful when it happened, and my face was sore and swollen for a week afterwards, but believe me it was worth it!! Hubby says now I have the "million dollar smile!." I tell him that's because it cost almost a million dollars!! Seriously, though, I believe the surgery cost about $500, and braces $4500!. That was 10 years ago, though!Www@Answer-Health@Com

My adult canine tooth grew in front,
it sucks! I lost my baby one too late!.
An even cheaper way to go about your situation
I would think is to just get permanent fake teeth there!.
