Memphis (cool name) was a teenager with buckteeth that were fractured before he became an orthodontic patient. Memphis also had crowded and crooked teeth with a deep bite and severe overbite. Premolar teeth needed to be removed during orthodontic treatment. The treatment time was about 24 months. Following orthodontics, he had both removable and fixed orthodontic retainers placed. We have recommended that when Memphis completes growth, that he have either cosmetic bonding or a laminate or veneer placed on his left central incisor.
