Is it possible to get braces for just one tooth? I have very good alignment in my teeth. All of them. BUT I have one babytooth that may have to come out soon. I have an adult tooth that's just begun to cut through the roof of my mouth just behind the baby tooth. My dentist a while back said that if that adult tooth ever decided to come in we could pull the baby tooth. BUT I know my insurance won't pay much for braces. I never expected to need them. I doubt that this baby tooth will move into the proper hole since it's already started to come through in a different place. I don't want to be an adult with a gaping hole where canine should be. I also don't have to money to handle a full mouth of braces. Are there any cheaper routes to fixing this problem? What can I expect? I will be seeing my dentist again next week but I'd like to hear what options are out there (if there are any different options) so that when he starts telling me what he recommends I can understand what the best choice is.
