I have a really bad open bite from when I sucked my thumb. It was a really bad habit that I struggled to break. Even though I didn’t do it during the day I would naturally do it in my sleep without realising until I woke up! This has given me a terrible open bite and my 4 top teeth don’t touch and stick out terribly! Im desperate to get them fixed because it’s affecting my speech, the way I eat and wearing down my back teeth where I am over using them and I also struggle to breath properly at times because of it. I’m 26 now and I don’t have the money to drop 4K on them, not even in instalments. My dentist has said they can’t help me so I don’t know how I can get them done. It’s knocked my mental health massively. Wish I could win the lottery and get them fixed.
