And that's the only tooth in your head???
If there are other teeth, then they will have to be considered as well, and how they will have to move in order to shuffle the misaligned one back into place.
So - nomatter how 'small' you think the problem, it still needs to be considered in relation to everything else.
Invisalign might be suitable, or some other system might give a better result. The best way to find out would be to visit an orthodontist who has access to many systems rather than a dentist just trained in one expensive branded 'trendy' solution.
Get your general dentist to recommend an orthodontist, and go and have a consultation. This sort of thing is better looking for the best solution, rather than the cheapest way of getting a trendy system!How to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.0
