Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have slanted teeth and an asymmetrical smile. Can that be corrected with braces? I have been wearing braces for two months. Because of asymmetry, my face looks ugly.

Answered by Dr. Ummah Mohammad

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I am glad that you have started treatment at the right time. Be ensured that your issue will definitely be resolved. Braces or orthodontic treatment surely help in correcting asymmetrical jaws or teeth. You can ask your dentist, or you can only compare the X-rays taken before treatment and the present one, and you will be able to appreciate the differences yourself.

I hope I was able to resolve your query. Kindly feel free to revert for more questions. Happy to help. Take care and be happy. There is nothing like ugly in this world. It is all God's creation. You are beautiful the way you are.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
