Crooked tooth---any quick fixes?

Question

I have a crooked tooth in front (top left---one of the main two if you get what I mean) and I'm wondering if there is something I can have done quickly (like in one visit if possible). It's gotten worse the past few years. I'd hate to pay all that money for braces just for that tooth---plus it'd take forever. Anyone know of anything?

Yeah, I know and I will talk to a dentist (although they say braces which is dumb b/c I'm not going to pay $5000 for a tooth. Besides, I'm asking the dentist contributors on here AND people that have had the same problem.

Answer 1

if u dont want braces u have options like a veneer, crown, implant

Answer 2

I actually have the same problem and I am getting braces on tomorrow. I thought...well there must be a quick fix, but when I actually spoke with the orthodontist after my free consultation, he showed me how I have a cross bite, which causes that crowding, so in reality, there is more going on then I could see. It's hard for me to come up with the money right now, but I am doing that because it is what I think is best. I would at least call around and see which orthodontists provide a free consultation, and they usually tell you everything they would do, the cost, the procedures, and if you are set on just getting that one tooth fixed they may refer you elsewhere, but resources and knowledge never hurt anyone.

Have it pulled. -If THAT isn't "quick enough" for you- then be prepared to shell out "mucho dinero"- to have a Dentist straighten it out for you. There are SOME things in Life- for which there are NO "quick fixes". And your Teeth are 32 of them...

Answer 4

You have to talk to you dentist about this not the people on here as we can't see what is actually wrong with your mouth aka teeth.

Answer 5

yes-they can shave it down n use the white cavity stuff n make it look straighter. mine move alot n they did it again last month. cost the same as cavity n insurance pays it.
