Tooth pointing outwards

2017-01-27 17:51:38
One of my tooth on right side is pointing out and the teeth right under it a larger in size than others. So I just figured out that can those teeth be filed down and I could use only a retainer to push them back inside. But I have been suggested to get braces on which I do not want.
