What to do about fangs...??


Question: I have fang like canines that protrude more than my other teeth. I'd like them to be levelled off and brought into line with my other teeth. Will a dentist be able to do this?
Answers: It depends on how severe the problem is but yes, in moderate cases they can be simply filed down. If they are beyond what a dentist would consider safe for such a procedure there is always the option of having them filled and then capped, more expensive to be sure but that's a call only you can make. Good luck.
yes---my sister had the same thng done when she was a kid, it bled alittle, but she's glad she did it.
I had fangs too. Go to a dentist or an orthodontist and they will help you. No prob!
Probably...
I have one of those but have always been scared to get it fixed.
yes a dentist will deaden your mouth and take a small grinder and file them down for you. [about 30 minutes]/ or you can have them pulled whichever one you want.
hi

your dentist will be able to help with the fangs by either sanding them down or sending you to a orthodontist to have some work done.

Sometimes in a mild or moderate case this can be corrected with a retainer. Depends on how much they need to move. You would have to be willing to wear the retainer most of the time, but the more you wear it the faster it works.
Yes- the will most likely file them down and perhaps cap them as well.
A smile is the firstthing someone sees- I say go for it!
You can go to your dentist, and ask to be referred to an orthodontist.

I had fangs too...an orthodontist fixed them with braces and filing them down a bit. They look normal now, and I am told I have a nice smile.
Just about any licensed dentist.
