OK, I'll give it a shot [I'll try to keep it short]:
I had braces when I was in my early 20's. Ran out of money and kept them on for years without anything being done to them. I had them taken off about 10 years ago and needless to say, I could use them still,. I have an overjet [according to the post above], a tooth that the ortho was turning straight, TMJ and, now, spaces from where teeth were pulled to make room for the move.

I have been told that some orthos would not take me because they don't want to be held at fault for previous work done. Is that true? and is there a quicker fix than traditional braces?

Thanks!
