Hello! I am now 26 years old. the upper teeth are uneven. it sticks out 3k. and recently I had to remove the 5k on the left (it was broken). but it all doesn’t look so critical. I'm more worried about my bite. the lower jaw slightly receded to the left, and with age it is more noticeable. how to fix? Is it possible to get by without braces by filing your teeth (I read it on the Internet)? and another question. at the appointment with the prosthetist, he said that if the 5 ku is not implanted, then the neighboring teeth will sit on this place. And the bite will be even more wrong? Is it so?
