Can you remove my braces?

[MT1]

Hi

I hope you can help me.

I wear braces and have done for three years. My teeth are straight and I want the braces off now. Thing is, my wisdom tooth (upper left) has come through and is causing a lot of pain by rubbing my teeth. Other gaps have been caused because my orthodontist takes so long between appointments. I'm also terrified of dentists

Is there a way I can get the braces off, teeth whitened and wisdom teeth out all at once? Can I get a complete smile makeover? And what if I have a bad credit history but can now afford to make repayments?

Thank you for your question.

We can remove your braces and remove your wisdom tooth in one visit but its usually better to wait a while before whitening your teeth. The reason is braces attract plaque to the gums around your braces and often once braces are removed, the gums are inflammed and it would be better to clean you teeth once the braces are removed and wait a while for the gum inflammation to settle before doing any teeth whitening.
