Re: Type of embouchure for a newbie with uneven teeth

Thank you all for your comments.

Following your advice - I've booked a dentist appt for tomorrow and it's a toss-up of whether he'd do it for me on the day in my opinion (as they're so ridiculously busy he may ask me to come back) but I will be fixing the single front tooth issue regardless.

Re my teacher, despite the fact that we've only had 4 lessons or so, I do like her and feel a sense of loyalty there (call me soft) and, coupled with some single-lip practise whereby I've already all but eliminated the screeches, feel that I can be well on my way with both techniques.

I suppose I'll mix the embouchure up to keep both options open and decide how I feel about them later down the line - once the newbie issues are sorted and it inevitably becomes more important with the full use of the instrument at advanced level.

Thanks once again for the suggestions & motivation, really a great crowd here!
