Can you get braces with missing teeth?

Answer 1

yes you can if you already had the braces while your tooth came out then they will put a wire over it but it you teeth came out before the braces no because it is a possibility that the braces can close the gap and stop the adult tooth from coming back in

Answer 2

There are some relevant aspects of your situation that you haven't told us. How old are you? Are teeth missing because they haven't grown in yet, or because they were knocked out, or fell out due to periodontal disease? I might advise you to wait for new teeth to grow in the first situation, and in the second, you might want to have artificial teeth implanted before getting braces, for the best looking result. And if you are losing teeth due to periodontal disease (or other medical problems) then it probably doesn't pay to correct the angle of teeth that you are likely to lose anyway. But yes, it is possible to get braces even with missing teeth. Talk to your dentist.

Answer 3

If you have several missing teeth in the front of your mouth, then it is NOT advised to do so! This is only because your teeth will be aligned and there will be no room for the new tooth to grow. It is better to have all your teeth grown back, then started; I doubt the orthodontist would put braces on if you had missig teeth.

~I have braces with chains and rubber bands~

Answer 4

They're not required, but recommended. I was missing 3 teeth(1 removed, 2 never came in), and I had braces for 3 years. Usually after the treatment, and you are over 21, they will do an implant of a fake tooth. If they don't do the implant, they will just move the teeth close together. Good luck!

Answer 5

I think u might need dentures instead of braces.

Answer 6

Yes, you still can get braces they just move the ring that usually goes around the back teeth to the nearest tooth to the back :)

Answer 7

Yes.
