My girlfriend needs braces but is afraid to do it because one of her front tooth is a implant, any help?

She wore braces as a teen, the like many did't wear he retainers. As a adult, 25 her lower teeth got very crooked then she had them venered. Her she lost one of her front teeth in a aciddent, and now has a implant. At 31 her midline is drifting off center and overbite growing with age. She has a beautiful smile but often hides it. I would love see her smile again.

You cannot move an implant with braces. Is the smile really that bad or is your girlfriend making things out to be worse than they actually are?





If you were really desperate you could ask your dentist to change the position of the implant slightly and re-position the remaining natural teeth with braces but I suspect this would be both difficult and costly.
Reply:I'M SURE AN ORTHODONTIST CAN DISCUSS HER CASE WITH HER. AN IMPLANT SHOULD NOT PREVENT HER FROM GETTING BRACES.
Reply:An implanted tooth cannot move as the implant itself is in the bone. Have her check with an orthodontist they would be able to move all natural teeth.
