Patricia's problems began some 30 years ago, when her jaw was fractured in an accident. During the healing process her teeth shifted, creating a large gap between her front bottom teeth. I went to many dentists over the course of many years, but they all said braces wouldn't do anything. They wanted to put a false tooth there instead. Patricia's condition is not uncommon.
Teeth frequently move following an injury to the jaw.
There would still be a space, but it would be moved to the back. Once the braces were off, a bridge could be made to fill the space. Over the course of a year, Patricia continued her treatment, coming to the clinic for monthly visits. But I didn't listen. Even before her braces came off, Patricia noticed an immediate improvement in her smile.
