gap has moved to front of mouth
made gap next to false tooth a bit too big as tooth to cover false tooth and gap would look very wide next to other incisor
told mr s bout implantologists we saw and what they said
mr s says people think my bite is off centre as i dont bite with my back teeth, i need to bite properly! i apparently still force my bottom jaw forward! a habit i guess..
I've recently had my braces removed (May 2009) and now have an Essix retainer for my bottom jaw (to wear at night) and an Hawley retainer for my top jaw with false tooth attached (to wear during the day).
Starting in Aug/Sept 2004 I had Damon type 2 brackets, then In-ovation brackets (replaced March and May 2006) and seven In-ovation brackets without clips (with elastic ligatures).
Total time in braces = 4 years and 8 months!
NB: All treatment is through the NHS apart from implant work done by Mr Ziff which is private.

(Mr Ralston)
mr ralston (dental and cosmetic clinic) in south wigston - 2nd cousin recommendation
he said lil flap of gum over tooth needs removin (called a labial frenectomy) as it may affect implant space
he filled gap with a filler and took photos before and after to show what a big tooth in the gap would look like
he took xrays to check bone etc is okay for implant
asked us to get mr s to move false tooth to the side so i can see gap in middle
this one had to be paid for in advance!
fancy equipment in practise and on site parking
