do you take patients who are 14 years old? I have big front teeth that also stick forwards and people make fun of me at school. I would like to have this treatment because the website says it is fast and that it doesn’t show up as much as the braces with the wires glued to your teeth. I am only 14 years of age but i do have all of my own teeth and i keep them very clean so none of them are rotting or anything. Can you give 14 year olds the inman aligner to straighten their teeth or am i too young to have it? If i am too young when will I be old enough to have it?
thank you doctor
Hello
It is not impossible to treat teenagers, however there are so many other growth issues that need to be considered that you should always go and see an orthdontist first.
If your back teeth are good and your bite well positioned it might be possible.
I would normally say 14 is too young, but in some cases if you have seen a specialist already and they have agreed that everything else is ok,
it may be possible.
