Hi, I understand it's better to ask my orthodontist about this, but I thought I'd also come here for an opinion.
I'm 16 and I'm having a brace put on in two weeks to ''prepare'' my teeth for a corrective underbite surgery taking place in two years time under the NHS. Alongside this, I also have upper teeth that are in terrible natural appearance; between the front 8 teeth there are equal spacings between my teeth, each large enough for my tongue to fit inbetween each, with my front teeth bucked outwards slightly. The teeth themselves are in excellent health.
Is it physically possible for these gaps to be corrected with the braces that I will be having? Sorry I haven't uploaded a photo of my teeth, would it help if I did?
Thanks
