You need to visit an Orthodontist he will take x-rays and photographs of face, impressions to determine what type of treatment is needed. Removable retainer can be used to stabilize the position of the teeth. Small type of rotations can be treated with selective grinding of teeth. Ceramic braces with cosmetic tooth coloured braces can be used in patients afraid of using dental braces. I would suggest you to discuss the treatment options with your Dentist.
Hello and welcome, Usually protruded teeth are corrected by application of orthodontic braces. I would advice you to go for orthodontic treatment. Implants are placed after removing the natural teeth and if you have got prognathic maxilla ,you have to go for orthognathic surgery prior to application of orthodontic braces. Please do visit your dentist regarding this. Always keep in mind that correcting natural teeth will always provide better aesthetics than replacing with artificial teeth. I wish you good health. Take care.

Hi, Thanks for asking the query, You need to visit an Orthodontist he will take x-rays and photographs of face, impressions to determine what type of treatment is needed. Removable retainer can be used to stabilize the position of the teeth. Small type of rotations can be treated with selective grinding of teeth.
