Query for braces alternative.
Hi,
I had already done with braces treatment last about 3 years, almost 5 years back.
Now the one front teeth comes more outside as compare to other and the just left one goes more downside.
I want to be sure if any other treatment can be taken instead of going for braces again, as it is now too hard to get it done again.
I just need a even smile , not much bothered about the upside structure of mouth, (sideline is bit upfront) but that 1 teeth causes real uncomfort as it is more outwards.
Kindly suggest me with genuine treatment, waiting for it all gems.
Thanks in advance.

This problem is suggestive of relapse....
Maybe because of not using retainers ( after treatment).
Ideally orthodontic treatment is the best option

You have to undergo again Rx , but instead of braces you can opt for aligners Rx will solved your problem and keep your teeth in proper position with less discomfort and no visibility of braces as it is invisible during Rx

As I can c , u got ur braces done wn u wre 20 yrs old, little late , so the chance of relapse ( teeth again coming out ) is more ,
Next Steps
pls consult an orthodontist , ( specialist in braces ) , for ur age after the treatment is complete , they do give something called permanent retention ( placing a wire from inside ) which will b n place for an yr or so , which prevents relapse
Health Tips
pls do consult an good orthodontist who can help u , it can b rectified , pls dont worry
