tooth moving out of place after braces ?
Posted: 02-04-08 22:53pm

I still have my braces, I got them around six months ago and am about halfway done.

What I'm wondering is, ever since my braces have done their job--I've noticed that one of my front teeth has now moved down lower than the other one to where it's noticeable.

Has this happened to anyone else, and will this be a problem? Or will the braces eventually fix this?

Also, bonus question: has anyone else whitened their teeth after they finished with their braces? I plan to immediately after, as right now I'm also unhappy with the color and brushing them wholeheartedly does nothing.

well --you arent done yet and the braces are not quite done yet. however i would mention it to your orthodontist so that he can do what he needs to fix it if it is indeed a problem.

Yes brushing with even whitening tooth past doesnt do a whole lot. you coule try whitening strips or you could have your dentist do it. i think it would be a good idea for you
