Hi,
Malaligned teeth results in lack of smile and loss of confidence.You need to consult an orthodontist for a fixed orthodontic treatment to get your teeth aligned. The earlier you start the treatment the better will be the result.

hello,
your teeths can be corrected if your supporting gums and bone are not infected. if not infected then no problem go to an orthodontist , take an OPG and lateral cephalogram to analyse your problem severity. according to the severity orthodontist will decide your treatment. take care. happy smile.

Hi!
I think this is the right age to get your protuded and malaligned teeth corrected. Orthodontic treatment which implies the correction of dental malalignement, will help. After some years of orthodontic treatment surely the results will amaze you and broaden your smile. Take care.

Approach a dentist. Is it that difficult? He willl examine and telll you what you will need to do. My sister also had protruding teeth which was spoiling her look. She saw dentist, who suggested braces, then she used it regularly for 6 months with sitting with the dentist eevry month to tighten them. Now she looks so nice, we are getting so many proposals for her. earlier we were worried as she was not getting any marriage proposals.
