Is their a difference between a orthodontic and a hospital orthodontics? My son and his friend attended the above last October and my son has to wait 1 to 2 years before his next appointment, but his friend who went to the one at the hospital is now starting his treatment.

Hi I had 2 teeth extracted and my upper teeth pushed back when I was younger to correct an overbite. My teeth are now too far back in my mouth and are hardly visable when I smile, giving me a sunken profile. Is it possible to reverse this by reopening the extraction spaces and moving the front teeth forward with braces and an expander ? Thanks Simon
