I have a tiny tiny mouth and I never got braces. Last year when I was 17 I had two teeth pulled (the ones next to my two front teeth) because my next ones over where in their spot, and those that were supposed to be there were behind me two front teeth forming a square!! It was HORRIBLE, i couldnt talk very well. Now I can talk fine, but It looks kinda goofy having my "fang" teeth next to my front two.

My little sister is 9 now and has the same tiny mouth problem. They have some sorta thing at the roof of her mouth that they turn with a key to make it bigger. *Thank goodness they got her in there before it was too late like me* But it is too late for me. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/frown.gif What's the least-fordable to get a decent smile?? Just pull em all and get false teeth!?! *sigh*

Keep in mind, I'm 18 and am kinda broke, lol... *sigh*

It's not too late to do something cosmetic for your smile. If your teeth are in good shape and you aren't having any problems, then by no means should you think about dentures. As a new denture wearer, trust me on this! Although my smile is near perfect now, it is no substitute for natural teeth. My teeth were beyond saving, but it sounds as though yours are in pretty good shape, with the exception of those two being in the wrong place.

My suggestion to you would be to consult with a few dentists and see what they advise. Some may let you make payments to them as well. If not, maybe your parents can pitch in and help with a small loan to you?

Dentures are expensive and a full mouth extraction is even more costly than the dentures themselves. Even an upper plate would be quite expensive. So please, unless your teeth are decayed and beyond saving, do what you can to keep your natural teeth.

Try doing a search for cosmetic dentists in your area. There are some amazing procedures out there that could give you the look you desire.

Good luck!
