Change in teeth alignment

    Hello, for some time now I've noticed a change in the alignment of my bottom teeth. The middle tooth is leaning very slightly to the right. It's barely noticeable but I can see it. The tooth beside it has moved out. Again it's not very obvious. I've always had a slight overbite but also feel this has become a little more pronounced.

    I fear this may be gum related and extensive work will be required. This is a worry because of the cost. Can anyone here advise me as to if it does seem gum related?

    Have your wisdom teeth made an appearance? My teeth have moved appreciably since my wisdom teeth came up, which is extremely frustrating given the money my parents spent on braces for me as a teen.

    It'll take braces to correct mine again, which I'll be getting as soon as I have the money. I'm not sure I'm aware of any other way to realign teeth, tbh.

    The wisdom teeth have appeared. I think you're right about the braces being the solution here. Will you get invisalign or regular ones?

    I know I need to go to the dentist but am very worried about hearing the potential cost. My teeth sometimes hurt after brushing and there can be bleeding :(

    The is actually no correlation between late lower incisor crowding and wisdom teeth, your would think there would be but there is not. OP sound like you should go to a dentist and see what the issue is first, then you can make decisions and worry about costs. :)

    Thanks fitzgeme. I had a google and going by some of the images that is definitely what's going on. I'll book an appointment with a dentist.
