What's the best way to straighten seriously crooked teeth (besides metal braces if possible)?

I have three teeth on my right side (incisor, canine, first premolar) that are all very crooked. I had braces before and didnt wear a retainer and that was the result. The rest are ok. These teeth are pretty damn bad though, the first one (incisor) is pushed wayy back, the second one (canine) is pushed up and forward and the last one (first premolar) in pushed inward. Metal braces are probably the only way to go for this, but I figured I'd ask anyway. Anyone know of some possible methods that are less visible? I don't care about price or duration.

I think there are invisible braces now. They fit over your teeth like a retainer. You get fitted for them by your orthodontist and they come in sets that you where for a few months each.

Reply:Have a dentist or Orthodontist that does Invisalign check out your situation. It is possible with you only having to move 3 teeth that they can give you invisalign retainers but you may have to have metal braces. However you have to get them straight make sure to WEAR YOUR RETAINER after the process is over. That way you wont have to be brace face again.

I would have them but they cost alot more than we are willing to spend
Reply:If your teeth are as crooked as you say, I think braces would be the best treatment. They are a little painful and a little embarassing to have as an adult, but the results will be WAY better than what you could get from Invisalign. The "clear" ceramic brackets are a little better than the old metal ones you probably had to sport as a kid. Find yourself a good orthodintist and they will take care of you. Be sure they are in fact a trained Orthodontist and not a dentist who does Orthodontics.
Reply:invisalign is only for minor.. i have a minor correction of needing one tooth to come down and i was stubborn and made my dentist do it instead of braces and it never came down because invisalign is not good for excursion (pulling down) so 4,000$ later.. i ended up getting braces on today... just get the braces because thats the quickest and best results... and wear your retainer! you can get ceramic (tooth colored) thats what i got and its not that bad... the wire is silver but it just looks like a retainer unless ur really close up
