I have a very asymmetrical face, and my dental arch is also very asymmetrical, this is why I think braces would help in this situation... I hope I will be able to get braces soon to fix this problem.

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Thanks for watching. We wish you luck. Braces are effective at moving teeth, but not very effective in changing the jaw structure. For a jaw structure asymmetry it’s important to address any Myofuntional issues that contributed to the problem. A Myofuntional therapist can help you for that. Depending on the severity, hopefully it will improve over time. Otherwise surgery may be required for some cases.

All my wisdom teeth came down/up and thanks to the mewing I thought I’d made enough room and would get to now keep them. My dentist initially said they would all need to come out (before pandemic.) Then another dentist I had later , said they were fine and only one might be of concern but otherwise yes I could now keep them.

My teeth are big and i have an overbite and an underbite . Should I have braces... What do you recommend

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello! Thanks for your question. Hopefully we are able to help. Usually we recommend that patients who have an overbite get orthodontic treatment as this will be the easiest and most effective way to fix the problem. However, we would suggest you looking into something called Invisalign. It's very similar to braces but it's a clear alternative that you can remove when necessary. This will ensure that you you can eat and drink without any discomfort and struggle when it comes to keeping your teeth clean. The solution is also much better because people don't tend to notice it as much as they do when it comes to braces. Over the last few years we've actually been able to treat quite a few severe cases with Invisalign instead of Braces and we've actually done a lot more Invisalign treatment at our office than braces! Hopefully we've been able to answer your question! If you have any others please don't hesitate to ask us we would be more than happy to help!

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hey Whitney, I'm so sorry to hear about you getting bullied. We understand just how important your smile can be so hopefully I can give you a hand! Usually, we can't make any recommendations for you without seeing you first, but if all you're currently dealing with is a crossbite, then you may actually be able to use both Braces and Invisalign to fix this issue! I would suggest you consider visiting a few orthodontists/dentists in your local home-town that provide both Invisalign and Braces and find ones that don't charge for a consultation. Invisalign would probably be a much better solution for you because it will be really hard to tell that you're straightening your teeth and this way you can actually take them out when you're eating and such. For most of the patients that we see at our office, we recommend Invisalign as technology has gotten significantly better over the years. In some circumstances, we've seen that Invisalign could also be faster than Braces! Hopefully, this helps answer your question. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any more questions!

I had invisalign treatment as an adult for overbite and overcrowded lower teeth, but the result were sunken cheeks, weak jawline, narrow smile the list is endless. I am hoping and researching to reverse the treatment. If you can give me any advice I will appreciate it.

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello, hopefully we can answer your question! Dr. Dhillon has personally treated over 2000 invisalign cases and he's only had one patient out of 2000 that has mentioned that she had sunk in cheeks, it was actually a lady that was pregnant. So it was really hard to say if there were any other factors involved. The other side of it is that Dr. Dhillon was wondering if there were any teeth extractions completed when you first started Invisalign? Here at our office we actually have a no extraction policy for orthodontics because we believe that we should focus on expanding the arch and improving tonge space and therefore airway. Dr. Dhillon says that he has unfortunately worked on quite a few patients who have previously had orthodontic treatment done with multiple extractions and they were unhappy with the width of their smile and or had airway problems. The only solution was treatment where we expanded the arch which created space that could be managed by either making certain teeth wider with cosmetic bonding or even making room for dental implants that are able to replace the teeth which are able to be removed. This is the number one reason that we suggest visiting multiple dentists when you get an orthodontic consultation because there are many ways to straighten your teeth and not a lot of dentists focus on expanding arches to improve tongue space and the airway as well as correcting myofunctional problems. Hopefully we've been able to help guide you in the right direction! If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask us. We would be more than happy to help.

You're so right! Tongue ties actually play a huge role when it comes to facial structure. There can be a lot of underlying reasons for crooked teeth and this was supposed to just be a brief introduction. Ultimately you should still see a dentist because they will give you a much more individualized solution than any youtube video can.

I noticed though that most people I met if not all who had braces do not have a very visible jawline and they often have double chin even though they are skinny. For example, my friend who didn’t have braces, has a noticeable jawline, almost boxy. His sister who had braces, has a very small jawline and has double chin even though she is skinny. Of course gender and genetics play their roles, but how the braces changed her face is really obvious since both their parents have strong and defined jawline like their son. Based on what I read from researches and observation too, people with diet of mostly soft food will usually have problem with teeth crowding because less effort on chewing makes the jawline smaller making braces necessary which then will further narrow the jawline. In contrast, people with less access on soft food like pressure cooked meat, will usually have wider jaw and not have issues with teeth crowding.

To prevent unwanted facial changes avoid extraction and retraction. If you have metal mechanically dragging your teeth and alveolar bone back to close spaces then it will change far more drastically than diet and habit within that same time frame. Not all orthodontist cause facial damage but many are not even aware that's what they're doing. I had mine done at 13 without knowing the risks, I did not give informed consent, the damage has been life altering.

Hello. Thank you so much for reaching out. We hope we can guide you in the right direction. Yes, you can certainly still practice proper tongue posture with braces! There may be some exercises that are a little harder with braces but overall you should absolutely be focusing on fixing these underlying conditions. We actually just posted a video that details some of the exercises that you can do for better tongue posture. The video is about 6 minutes long and it talks about some other exercises that you can do at home to help with your orthodontic condition. I will attach the link so that you can watch it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHrGf3-XitOji7c In regards to it improving your face, honestly it really depends on a few external factors such as your age, how long you practice these exercises, and the time duration tha you're expecting the changes. All these play a huge role in our patients success, but we do believe that over the long term you will see some minor changes to your face shape. If you want to learn some more details about this (it is a long podcast), Joe Rogan had a fantastic podcaster recently. About 3 weeks ago, he had a journalist named James Nestor. I will also attach his video so you can get a lot more information about some really interesting factors that influence your overall health!

It's really hard to say because each condition is so different. Some people may be able to fix it, and some may not due to the severity. Many people will however consider getting braces and getting jaw surgery so that they can get the most out of their treatment. This would probably be the most effective solution for many people who have severe facial asymmetry.

It certainly depends on each individual case and on the specific teeth that are getting extracted. We do recommend that you visit multiple dentists or orthodontists so that you can get more information about your specific case and an understanding as to whether or not you actually do need to go through and extract those teeth. We usually recommend that you visit multiple dentists and get multiple different quotes as well as information about your case. this way you can understand whether or not it's actually needed and you can find a dentist that can actually help. Hopefully this helps answer your questions!

Hi there! I'm scheduled to get braces in about a month. I am 15 years old and I have 4 gaps in my top teeth (1 in the middle of my front two teeth, and 1 on either side of them), and no gaps in my bottom. My teeth are also pretty straight and I have no crowding what so ever. The orthodontist told me that to close the gaps, she would need to pull my teeth back. However, I do not have an overbite or any other bite than a normal one, so I would have to get a bottom row of braces with rubber bands. My biggest questions are: Is the orthodontist correct? Will there be any changes in my face? and, Will my mouth still function the same (like, will my mouth still be closed when it rests? Will I have to force it to shut?)? Thank you!

It's really hard to say because each individual case is so different from each other. Some people might not be doing things properly in order to make sure that their face doesn't change they could also be doing a lot of negative habits such as mouth breathing that could hinder their long-term facial positioning. each case is so different that it's hard to say whether or not braces will actually do this, however we do recommend patients who have crooked teeth get them fixed as soon as possible so that they don't endure further damage or problems later on.

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello, I just wanted to personally say that I'm truly sorry for everything going on at school. I totally understand how you feel and hopefully I am able to personally give you a hand. I would honestly see if you have any local dentists around you that provide free Invisalign consultations. You don't want to end up paying for these because you're going to need to visit a few different locations so that you can get the best opinion for your teeth. The reason why I recommend Invisalign instead of braces because it could actually end up being cheaper in some cases (can't talk about other places, but for us Invisalign is actually cheaper) and because most kids won't be able to notice that you're straightening your teeth. It's basically a set of clear aligners that you'd keep on your teeth for 22 hours a day, and you'd only take it our for meals and for brushing and flossing. This will also making eating much easier and you won't get anything stuck in your teeth. We've actually been able to treat patients as young as 8 years old with Invisalign and we've had some great results. If you're near Calgary Canada we can give you a hand, but if you aren't I'm going to send you a link for Invisalign's webpage where you can either type your zip code or postal code and find a bunch of local dentists and orthodontists near you. This way you can give them a call and ask about free consultations. The goal is to learn as much as you can about your teeth from each and find the one you find the best. Invisalign doctor locator: www.invisalign.com/get-started/find-a-doctor Your parents may also have orthodontic coverage under their dental insurance policy (some do and some don't it really depends on your parents policy). This would make it much cheaper for you to get Invisalign and most dentists and orthodontists are actually covered! (We are!) Hopefully I've been able to help!

[@youseralrubaiey6576]

Hello Dr, I am currently a 14 year old girl, most of my friends have all there adult teeth by now however one of mine are missing. In January of 2019, I done a small surgery on that particular tooth (bottom right incisor) where the dentist removed a ball of undeveloped tooth and other substances which was said to be blocking the growth of the incisor and that this has been caused by a tumour. The dentist explained that my tooth should start to break through the gum in a matter of 2 months. Fast forward to today, my tooth has not come through and it has been almost 2 years. I am very worried about this and considering the COVID situation we are in, I cannot do much right now. I have done my research and proposed that due to the fact I used to suck on my thumb when I was younger and sleep with my mouth open, my face has not developed the correct way, my jaw is quite narrow, cheekbones are sunken face is asymmetrical and lower face is appearing to be long, therefore my tooth does not have enough space to grow. Therefore, I really need your advice, how can I professionally get the doctors to fix my improper facial development (rise cheekbones and widen jaw) other than of course, plastic surgery and do you have any other theories as to why my tooth has not come out yet? What can be done for it to grow?

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello, thank you so much for your question. It seems like you've done quite some research. Hopefully, we are able to help guide you in the right direction! Typically we wouldn't do surgery on patients your age because they aren't fully done growing. we usually do this for people in their very late teens or early twenties. at your age, there are non-surgical, orthodontic techniques that can potentially still make a profound improvement. Dr. Dhillon would suggest having a few consultations, ideally looking for someone who does a combination of orthodontic treatment and myofunctional treatment. (someone who can address the disorders of the muscles, face and the mouth) in the meantime, your best option is to work on your mouth breathing while you wait until you can actually start orthodontic treatment. Regarding your unerupted teeth, it is very difficult for us to give our opinion, without seeing your x-rays and seeing how close or far your teeth are from erupting, how much root development is still left, and other factors. It is pretty hard to say, but there are times where teeth need to be assisted with their eruption using orthodontic treatment. Again, this is something that should be assessed by whatever dentist or orthodontist you see during your consultations. We would certainly recommend that you get this checked out sooner rather than later. Hopefully, this helps, if you have any other questions please don't hesitate to reach out and ask. We would really appreciate you subscribing to our channel as we are trying to help as many people as possible! Thank you so much!

Hi doc. I got my braces. N I m 32. I have 4 extractions. Will that change my face a lot. If yes, then which area.

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello Tuli, thank you so much for reaching out. Hopefully, we can help answer your questions! It means a lot to us. So whenever you get an extraction and don't fill the area with an implant or a bridge your teeth tend to want to fill the hole. It's a natural process, but it can severely damage both the integral structure of your face as well as the shape of your smile since all your teeth will want to shift in order to fill those holes. I know that getting implants or bridges will be an expensive solution but over the long term, you will be more thankful that you completed this treatment. Braces will help move your teeth, but you do risk the problem of them caving back in. Thanks for reaching out. I hope that we were able to help! Please if you could, subscribe to our channel. We would really appreciate your help as we are trying to educate as many patients as we can!

I have gotten invisalign and my bite was a bit lopsided but my face looked perfectly symmetrical and I had fine function. I got my bite fixed and it has completely ruined my face and jaw line and my entire face is lopsided instead of my teeth. I look like I had a stroke and people notice. I regret ever getting invisalign! please no one get it.

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Each case is extremely different so it's really hard to say whether or not the same things will happen to others as it did to you. We would highly recommend that you bring these concerns up with your dentist and have an open conversation about the options available to fix these issues. It's always about keeping an open dialogue with the dentist to ensure that you're aware of the limitations and how you think the changes will affect your smile. We also highly recommend that you talkto a few other dentists before getting Invisalign treatment done so that you're fully aware of all the repercussions that are involved and how your smile will change.

I put braces on jus to have that “Texas jaw line “ :)

Haha! Glad you got braces. Let us know how it goes.

If the tooth are protruded, your face definitely gonna be strighter and better after brace.

Hard to say without seeing you in person. Your best bet is to visit a few local dentists and ask them about different treatment options that may work best for you!

I’m worried I’m going to look bad if my face changes with my braces

[@proudtuber2114]

Honesty I had the same thought getting braces but it’s change my facial feature ALOTTTT! I got my braces off yesterday having having them on for over 2-3 (I had really bad overbite and crooked teeth) and my cheek bones pop out more, my jaw line is straight and corrected trust me it’s worth it

[@stickyschannel8497]

@@proudtuber2114 So you're saying that your jawline and your face actually improved after taking the braces off????? I need an answer because right now I am really worried because I saw some people on Quora saying that braces ruined their face and jawline with photos evidence. And by the way, how old are you? They say it affects kids more because they are growing and I am 16 and I don't know if my jawline/face will continuosly grow.

[@proudtuber2114]

@@stickyschannel8497 I’m 17 I had braces since October of 2016 so for almost 4 years, I had a really bad over bite really crooked teeth i have photo evidence on how much my jawline has improved my teeth were pushed back so I was forced to kind of rest my tongue on the roof of my mouth which expanded the pallet of the mouth, which is what my orthodontist said is why my jawline became much more visible your skull isn’t completely fused together until 20 so you still have time to improve your overall facial features naturally, it’s always about good posture!!

[@proudtuber2114]

@@stickyschannel8497 I honestly don’t think think they do all braces do is correct your teeth closing in spaces and make them straight and at the same time your jaw gets corrected as well, however I can see how people who have large spaces or teeth that are missing I can see how braces can make there jaw lines less visible that’s mainly because like I said braces make your teeth straight and close in gaps, if you have missing teeth or large gaps braces will fill them in with your remaining teeth which will make the pallet of your mouth smaller and hence your jaw will get smaller, but honestly talk to your orthodontist don’t be afraid to ask them these questions because they will be able to tell you wether or not braces will positively or negatively effect your facial features, remember that’s their job

[@swakanchhaaaa]

My doctor has said that two molars will come out of your lower, only then you will get braces because there is no space in your teeth. , Sir , can't I get braces without removing two molar ? Sir please reply mein , can't I get braces without removing molars ?

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Thanks for watching our video. Hopefully we can answer your question. Our recommendation is that you visit a few other dentists and orthodontists around your home town so that you can get a better opinion. You should contact the offices and ask them right away whether or not they are do extractions. It truly depends on each dentist and each individual condition, but it's the best way to ensure you learn as much as you can about your case.

I have an overbite and a smaller top jaw and the I went to the ortho today and they said i would need to get my 1st 2 molars removed in order to bring the overbite in with braces and bands for 2 1/2 years. My dad is concerned that my facial features and side profile will change negatively. He doesnt think I should go through with the treatment due to the possible cosmetic changes. Im extremely insecure of my teeth and want this fixed. Is there anything i can say to my dad that will ease him? Also is removing the 1st two molars necessary for the fix? (im 15 about to be 16 in 2 months) thank you!

[@DentalNowPanorama]

Hello! Thanks for reaching out. We really appreciate your question. Hopefully we can give you a hand. Honestly, we would highly recommend that you visit multiple other dentists and orthodontists about your oral health. Here at our practice we actually have a NO-EXTRACTION policy, because truth be told, unless your teeth are rotten you always want to keep your full set of teeth! Especially since you're so young, there truly shouldn't be a need to remove teeth. With Invisaligns latest technological improvements we've been able to transform quite a few complex cases. We are basically able to engineer the movement of each individual tooth in the mouth through a digital system that most Invisalign providers should have (called an itero machine). We actually made a video on the differences between Invisalign and braces. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6q3XqOJm9l3m6s In regards to your dad's concerns, he may actually have a point. It could potentially change the shape of your face, and that's why it's important to visit a few other highly rated dentists and orthodontists that have been able to deal with complex cases. Always make sure you visit a few different ones so that you can get a better opinion on your condition. If you have any other questions, please let us know. We are more than happy to give you a helping hand. If you're interested, we'd be more than happy to get one of our dentists to quickly look at some of your photos and see what they think! Let us know 😊 We would also really appreciate you subscribing to our channel. It would mean a lot to us! We are trying to reach as many people as we can 😀
