Straightening Teeth
Teeth-straightening is done through a number of techniques. Dentists often require the patient to wear braces to re-align the position of the tooth. Tooth-reshaping is also performed on mild cases, while implants are installed in extreme cases.

What do people think of a girl with a gap between her front teeth?
I have a gap between my two front teeth and I've always been told it's ultracute! The hebrews believe that a gap between the top front teeth signifies wisdom.

What of John's is made with a harder mettle and therefore is less liable to an impression?
This was from a letter written by Abigail Smith to John Adams.
The answer is his heart.
The excerpt from the letter is as follows. (spelling is as she wrote it)
You was pleas'd to say that the receipt of a letter from your Diana always gave you pleasure. Whether this was designed for a complement, (a commodity I acknowledg that you very seldom deal in) or as a real truth, you best know. Yet if I was to judge of a certain persons Heart, by what upon the like occasion passess through a cabinet of my own, I should be apt to suspect it as a truth. And why may I not? when I have often been tempted to believe; that they were both cast in the same mould, only with this difference, that yours was made, with a harder mettle, and therefore is less liable to an impression. Whether they have both an eaquil quantity of Steel, I have not yet been able to discover, but do not imagine they are either of them deficient. Supposing only this difference, I do not see, why the same cause may not produce the same Effect in both, tho perhaps not eaquil in degree.
Yes they will, I got my braces off around 10 months ago, and I didn't wear my retainer to school, and now my teeth have gone back into an overbite.. lol.
I'm so pissed, yeah your teeth will move back, and then you can't get them to go back into place. -_-
Does it matter if the power chains on your braces move?
I am not sure but you might want to get it checked out. I have had power chains with my braces and they never moved. Plus I have never heard of that happening to anyone. Are you sure that they moved because I don't think their supposed to. Hope I helped :) Check with your orthodontist/dentist if that is supposed to happen.
If you stop wearing a retainer what will happen?

My child's retainer no longer fits is there any point in going back to the orthodontist?
Yes ASAP i did not go and get a retainer when mine broke and ended getting braces twice

What are the effects of growing an extra front tooth that is coming in upside down?
you're going to need to get that pulled because it's going to start to become irritated and it shouldn't be growing upside down. You should see a dentist right away because that tooth will cause all the other teeth on both sides to become CROWDED and CROOKED. It could also cause your bite to be incorrect which may lead to WORSE problems later on. DON"T WAIT! If you don't have dental insurance, look in the phonebook for a Town or State SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY.

Why it is important to brush your teeth?
If you do not brush your teeth regularly, you are prone to getting gum diseases--like gingivitis--and plaque, and your gums become swollen. You will get yellow teeth and disgusting breath. Plus, having a dirty mouth will NOT help your health, either. Studies show that not keeping your teeth clean could affect your heart.
Which are worse spacers aka separators or braces?
braces are way worse! spacers only cause mild pain on the teeth they are touching. braces cause pain on all your teeth; plus, it will take weeks if not months for your gums & cheeks to get used to the braces. with braces, every time you bump your mouth for the first few months- blood & sores! it is very painful!! spacers just feel like a big chunk of dental floss is stuck between your teeth! nothing you can't handle. braces are an entirely different story!
