Can I have braces if I have gum disease?
Hii,
I'm the mother of an 18-year-old. The appearance of her front teeth is improper and she also had pain in her gums. I came to know about this 6- month braces from my friend. We are relieved to know that the problem will be solved quickly. So we consulted the doctor with a hope that he will suggest for 6- month braces. But things didn't happen as our wish. The doctor said that she is having gum infection and for people with gum infection this technique is not possible. That was actually a shock for us. Does anyone have got any idea regarding this? Hoping to hear from you.
Thank You
