Crooked teeth

2019-02-20 18:11:48
My age is 24 and I have crooked incisors and large space between the teeth. At times food particles get lodged in these spaces but my major problem is its cosmetic effect. I feel shy when I smile. Is it possible to get braces at this age? Can this problem be corrected?

With the help of braces spaces between the teeth can be closed. If, you are bothered about the shape of the teeth, once the teeth are aligned with the braces, they can be reshaped esthetically.
