A member asked:
My teeth sticking more forward has pushed my lips out, making them look big. will braces fix both problems?

Possibly..: Of bigger concern is why your teeth moved forward. In adults, it may be a sign of gum disease. If so, orthodontics may not be possible. You needs to be seen by a local dentist to be diagnosed and treated. Give one a call for an appointment.

Possibly: Depending on the amount of crowding and the current position of your upper front teeth, your teeth and lips may move in a bit. See your dentist or orthodontist for a better idea.
