Hi all.
As the thread title states, would I really need braces or invisalign to straighten only 1 tooth?
That's what the NHS dentist told me.
It's a crown on the top front tooth btw.
Thanks.

The only option given was braces. Invisalign was what I thought is the alternative.
But even if there were pages of detail, other than really general advice, I'd still say only a dentist who can actually see you can advise you properly.
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.
Basically one of the upper front teeth has a crown and due to the grinding over the years, it seems it's gone crooked.
I just want it either to go back to it's original position without the gap, or replacing it entirely if that's possible.

So what would the solution be, TS? What options do I have?
