My surgeon realised there wouldn't be movement during the surgery, as he could see that the tooth was attached. He did chip some bone away, just in case ... but nothing happened.<br /><br />Because my tooth was connected to the bone horizontally, it also wasn't possible to remove my tooth. I think there's some bone loss in that area as well ... and these things ruled out the possibility of an implant. Frustrating, as that would have helped bring my tope teeth round closer to the centre. Plus my treatment would have finished much sooner, as the gap took a couple of years to close.<br /><br />Crowding is very easy to fix ... it's the bite issues that take time.<br /><br />I hope everything goes really well for you!Dragon (Karen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03836941136990832257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13721906.post-49653975815234624792010-06-14T05:20:35.255+09:302010-06-14T05:20:35.255+09:30Even though your case is not over yet, your teeth ...Even though your case is not over yet, your teeth look fantastic!

I'm 44 and have two impacted upper canines and lots of crowding in my mouth. My question is this----at what point did you know that an oral surgeon was unable to remove the impacted teeth? And was it not possible to have a mini-implant put in the open space when the impacted tooth could not be removed? BTW...I've never posted like this so I'm not sure if this is a private email or public. Sorry about that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
