Some cavities in front 4 teeth
Hello, I had done a braces treatment for 3 years between age 13-16. The aftermath of treatment gone wrong can still be seen on my teeth. The alignment isn't correct. There are small hole like cavities in front four teeth. My teeth have always been on the yellower side from day one. There is de calcification. Initially upon removing the braces, the glue left deposits. I'm getting married in exactly 2 months. Anything you could suggest ?

The cavities are unrelated to the braces treatment and are due to plaque accumulation, and the appropriate treatment is tooth coloured fillings so that their best shape can be restored back. Coming to the deposits on the teeth, you can go for procedure of scaling so that your teeth can be cleaned professionally for a better smile and gum health. And as regards the shade of your teeth, the natural shade of the teeth is different for different people and it will not change by scaling. You can go for professional bleaching of the teeth for lightning up the shade and beautiful your smile further. All these treatments can be successfully completed within the time duration that you have mentioned.
Regards.
