Fixed braces and gum recontouring

BEFORE

AFTER

Gulf War veteran, Lee, did not like the way his upper and lower teeth sloped in opposite directions.

The underlying cause was that the bones of his jaws had not grown symmetrically and we offered a referral to a specialist oral surgeon to see if surgical correction was possible or advisable.

Lee decided he preferred to accept his underlying skeleton and asked us to rearrange his teeth to stop them leaning in opposite directions.

We used upper and lower fixed braces to rearrange the teeth and then improved the symmetry of the gums with gum recontouring.

We are really happy with the result.

What Our Patient's Say

I have always been very impressed with the standard of cutomer care you recieve at Balsall Common Dental Practice. I have been going to see Dr Ashley Daveport for many years, along with my children. Ashley and his team have gone out of their way to make my whole family feel at ease and given us all top quality Dentistry work. Currently I am half way through correcting my teeth with clear ratainers. I am a teacher and the children have not noticed me wearing them. They are a great product and as an adult, are a more favourable alternative to a fixed brace. Finally the children love coming to the Dentist to get their stickers and to play on the Nintendo, while waiting for mummy and daddy. - read more

I have been a patient at Balsall Common Dental Practice for many years and, since moving from the area, I continue to return. I have had various different treatments with Ashley including my fixed brace, teeth whitening and emergency work. I have been incredibly impressed with the knowledge, expertise and proffessionalism shown throughout all of these. The whole team are also lovely, welcoming and accommodating. I could not recommend the practice enough. - read more

Ashley patiently talked me through all the possible options for having implants, and ensured that I had all the information I needed to take the best decisions. It has been a 3 year process, and he has worked closely with the orthodontist to ensure that, at each stage, I knew what to expect, and the things I needed to do to make sure I had the best outcome I could. All the way through, I have felt in very safe hands, and I have felt that my best interests were being looked after at all times. It has been a complex process, but I couldn’t be happier with the result. - read more
