Do you need headgear or neckgear if some teeth are going in and some are going out?

Answer:
you may need braces, and sometimes after you get braces you will need a retainer which is used to keep your teeth from becoming crooked again, often head gear is for an overbite which has more to do with your alignment of teeth as a whole rather than each individual's tooth alignment, you can choose not to have head gear its all up to you, but i suggest going to see an orthodontist, who can advise you more on the types of equipment you will need

Why don't u ask a dentist or orthodontist, instead of random people!

---

what??

---

I think everyone goes through a stage in their braces where they require you to wear headgear that way the teeth are the staying in place.

---

I don't really understand what your asking, but headgear and neckgear is only really for people with overbites or crossbites.

---

A few different reasons. One fo them is because some of your teeth are in the right place but others aren't and they want to keep the ones that are in the right place in the same spot so they use a headgear.No,they are not only for people with overbites and crossbites by the way.And no,not everyone with braces has to get them. It depends on your teeth.

WHY? / your teeth /are being pulled/ and /your/ getting dentures/ headgear / and neck wear/ are /not involved /in dentistry

---

i had 2 teeth pulled before i got braces years ago and the point of them was to help move a tooth that was growing out of place and it sort of helped with my over bite if your getting braces beware they suck and hurt for the first week and they hurt after they change your wiring and rubber band things and the retainer u wear after they come off hurts when u put it in if u dont wear it all day

---

headgear? uhmm no u dont.
u only need braces.
im pretty sure they dont use headgear anymore.

Ask your orthodontist about "Damon Self Ligating Braces" and "FREDS". This is the technology I waited for 'cause I didn't want rubber band braces or head gear...and it's not more expensive than regular braces.FREDS are the modern version of head gear...they're ugly springs inside your mouth to correct an overbite...but it totally beats headgear.I don't know how serious your situation is so just ask an orthodontist for real answers 'cause you could need surgery or just a retainer...I'm not a doctor lol.
