Need an HONEST opinion on my teeth!?!
Question: Need an HONEST opinion on my teeth!.?
Well .. for the past like .. 2 years, I've been afraid of smiling. How horrible is that.? Not being able to show my teeth because I feel so self conscious. Thing is I'm really really critical about myself on everything .. so when I'm in the mirror (yes I'm vain) I see everything is fine .. but if I ever see myself talking I HATE it. I don't know what it is, either the lips, but it seems to be the teeth.. there's an evident gap in the front two which I despise .. I hate seeing my teeth .. to me they're a complete let down to the rest of myself :(
My self esteem actually can not be crushed at all really so be as critical as you want, in fact, just as honest and critical .. I really need the truth. How would you feel about these teeth.?

They seem fine on picture tbh .. but I really really hate them .. especially when talking .. and to hell if I'll ever laugh and show them .. only at a distance would I do that lol.
Here's the other question I have also .. I used to suck my middle fingers when I were a kid for a while .. and I feel as though it's pushed the front 6 teeth forward .. can you see.? From canine to canine .. are they a little more pushed forward than normal.? I think this is also what annoys me about them too...

Thanks so much for your help.Health Question & Answer

Answers:
I think you have very nice teeth. THey are a nice size and shape. I don't think your finger sucking really had anything to do with it. Your arch has a nice rounded shape. You do have a space between your front teeth. It is called a diastema. You possibly have a heavy frenum attachment, the muscle that connects your top lip to your upper ridge. Sometimes they have to do a frenectomy which is a small surgery to lighten the frenum. It acts like a rubber band keeping the teeth apart. The picture you added showing the roof of your mouth really helped show your arch. It looks like your left cuspid or canine is pushed out a little not being it exactly the correct place hence making more space between your front teeth. A retainer "retains" meaning keeping teeth where they are so that won't help you if you want to move them. My advice is to have a consultation with an orthodontist not a dentist who does ortho. You have very nice teeth. I don't think your teeth are the problem it is your self esteem. Work on that instead. GOOD LUCK in your decision. Please, KEEP SMILING!!!!
P.S. Don't let anyone talk you into bonding your front teeth. It will make them look REALLY WIDE and unproportioned.Health Question & Answer

yeah it has yellow crud in there ... nasty gap.Health Question & Answer
First of all, when talking, no ones mouth looks normal.
You have nice white teeth, be proud! If all 6 are pushed forward, you won't notice!
My teeth are a light yellow colour(genetics) and uneven(not severely) and I hate them, but everyone says they ar lovely.
Everyone has a body part they are selfconscious about, it's normal. When a person smiles, if they really mean it, and are truly happy, the teeth don't matter.
A retainer would do the trick, but you'd need to speak to a dentist or orthadontist to be sure.
I would give them an 8/10, because no ones smile is perfect :)Health Question & Answer

your teeth are really not that bad. on a scale of 1 to 10 i'd give them a 7. there not perfect but who wants to be perfect. the way i see it people should be around you for who you are and the kind of person you are not for what your teeth look like. accept them and if you cant you can always get those plastic retainers that will move you teeth.

I think a course of invisaligh trays would be good for you. Ask your dentist, but they just don't look bad enough to need braces. Or you could have your front teeth bonded, but I really wouldn't advise it at your age.Health Question & Answer
I have seen much, much, MUCH worse teeth than that. Yours aren't bad at all!
If you are really worried talk to your dentist. I seriously doubt that there would be a need to cut your gum at all. Maybe braces for 6 months to reduce the gap would be about it.
If you are low on money there are universities and such that offer greatly reduced prices on work when you allow their students to work on you. (Don't worry, they won't stuff it up. They are fully trained and supervised, just not hugely experienced.)
I hope this helped, but honestly, as long as you're smiling, no one cares about your teeth.Health Question & Answer
