Answers:
I've had a customer of mine say that you can do the same as braces just by pushing on your teeth with your fingers, because that is all that the braces do. Of course if they are bad it will take some time. But if you are alone and watching tv or whatever, just try pushing gently on them. Maybe after a years time there might be an improvement.

You could always go see about getting braces. I know a lot of adults that gets them. Thre are payment plans to help.

no way! get braces dude

Right. Beavers teath grow all throughout life, and your's don't. so all it would do is grind your teath down. bad idea..

Wouldn't hurt.

only way to know for sure is try it!

This would just wear down the protective enamel on your teeth and make them susceptible to tooth decay. Ask your dentist about capping and filing procedures.

I don't know. Try it and let us know if it works for you.

Beavers still have buck teeth, so obviously log chewing will not do the trick!

It doesn't really help beavers does it? Just get braces, or if they're that bad, consider surgery. Just don't try to eat your chair.

not sure, but if you do decide to try it, please do us all a favor and record it! I would love to see that, Bucky!

Ithink braces would work. If you dont want braces try asking the dentist about the clear retainer no would would even see them.

Ok this may sound ghetto but it worked for my grammas brother (my uncle).
When he was a kid, he had buckteeth that were at like an 80* angle.really bad. Anyways every morning when he woke up he pushed on them.not so hard it bled or anything but a nice firm push. He would do the same before bed. He did it for !5 years!---------a LONG time! But back then they didn't really have braces, plus his family was poor. You might try it and see if it helps. Obviously an orthodontist and braces would be better, but if you can't afford it try pushing on them in the morning.

gnawing on a log certainly wouldn't be very productive--it would just wear them down.
