It's been 3 years since I got my braces off and I had 4 teeth extractions. I had a massive overbite and some crowding. I think it depends on who gets it. To be fair, I love my smile today. My cheekbones are more defined and my facial structure looks less boxy. I was afraid to get them out because I thought it would ruin how my face would look but I guess it worked out for me in the end. (READ UPDATE BELOW)
UPDATE (2023): I forgot to add that even after my extraction I still have a slight overbite due to my mild misalignment in my jaw and sucking my thumb as a child. My ortho did not think jaw surgery was necessary and I agree because I love my smile. So I wouldnt have had the sunken-in look people keep talking about.
dont u have any problems in eating?
@@iqrazafar732 nope, no problems in eating
@@tresmignon6325 and what about ur lower jaw?is it pushed backwards? bcz my lower jaw ks already a lil bit bacwards and im afraid tooth extraction will push it even more
My upperand lower teeth are protruded. I asked my ortho if we can extract teeth on my upper, but he told me that the outcome is an underbite. So i told him if we can also extract some teeth on the bottom. But he told me that i shouldnt. Should i talk to him again?
Hey.. How much time It takes just after extraction.. To push upper jaw backward. Please tell me i don't have any proper answer of mahh question.
Guyssss don’t worry this doesn’t happen to everyone, just bc he’s telling u that it happens it doesn’t means that this happens to everyone who gets extractions. Sometimes dentist do know why to remove them so don’t be scared. My sister had 4 extractions when she had braces and she has a beautiful smile after she had them removed. Don’t feel scared of what comments say, just be positive and take care of yourself 🥰
Thanks fellow army.. I am so scared I have my 2 teeths already removed 😭 and I have to go to remove 2 of them soon..
My daughter 12 yr .needs 4 premolar extractions ..she's really nervous to go through all this..how old was your sister when she got her treatment?
Lorena Rodriguez I just know that their will be no pain at all, the only thing they say u feel is pressure and the movement but no pain at all. They’ll most likely numb the mouth anyways so tell her not to be nervous 🤗
Tanya Dutt did u feel anything when u had them removed??
@@m.aarlaa thanks alot..😊
I'm SO THANKFUL I ran across this video before braces. THANKS FOR THIS GREAT INFO... you're so helpful
no problem Angela we are so happy to help out patients from anywhere, at any time :)
angela nadeau you are soo lucky!!
Jasmin Tarani i got 4 teeth extracted for braces almost 4 months ago. Am 32 years and all these videos about not to extract teeth which i found too late stress me out . !!!
SAHM Alj Hello i feel sorry for you that it makes you feel this way we have to think that thank god we know the truth now, but i know it is very scary and frustrating, after knowing this i cried many times and had panic attacks in the middle of the night.. but i think what you can do is to go to several good orthopedic surgeons who are specialized in facial bone and the maxilla make sure you get the best advice and knowledge, and go take your time and read about side effects of teeth extraction on google, one of them is depression and suicide thoughts which maybe not everyone will get i don't know but i had it, and it's good for you to see a Psychologist to get calm and to get over the anxiety and stress that you feel it's very important to deal as fast as you can with depression, i wish i knew it sooner like you did so that's very good for you to know it, i found these videos 7 years later and have depression for this long but i'm happy i finally know that something has gone wrong with my teeth, but feeling bad about it and giving bad energy to your body and teeth is not good and our negative thoughts does effect every part of our body we send it to so the best thing you can do is to try thinking positively and get help from good doctors and psychologists. even implants have side effects( every unnatural thing doing to the body has side effects) specially surgerys. and implants are very expensive and it takes a long procedure to get them. so get help and educate yourself about everything in this area know that you are not alone i hope you get well soon and just stay away from stress everything will be fine trust me know that so many people like you experienced it but know nothing about it. Go to specialists and keep calm you don't know maybe your case really needed this and if not no need to worry it can be fixed with a good opinion from a good doctor i hope everything goes right🙏🏼
@@Mypickss wait so your saying its better if the doctors remove my teeth or not?
I had extractions for crowding and I hate how narrow and sunken in my smile is now, I'm just praying I can find a way to fix it. this happened 5 years ago and it still depresses me more than anything.
You can't change the past, don't let it get you down!
xHarlequin i totally agree with you. It happened 7 years ago, serious. I am from indonesia. Actually it is hard to find holistic and functional orthodonthics in this country. Can i contact you further? I hav headache symptoms, i cant deny it
Please email me at dro@esorthodontics.com and I am happy to help where I can.
E&S Orthodontics thx for answer. Sometimes, i feel dumb and crazy, because i feel the only one suffer.
You are not alone, just look at all the comments on this video :)
There's a place called Face Focused Orthodontics that's located in Agoura Hills, California, led by Dr. Hang. I believe they help reverse orthodontic treatment that was done with extractions. They reopen the extraction spaces and place implants on the teeth that were removed and afterwards, many patients feeling improvements in their health. I feel that this information is important because I've haven't heard of a dental office that does this procedure.
Screenshotting this for later. Poking around in the dark right now so thanks.
I won't let them take my kids teeth like they took mine. Thanks for speaking up. I also had 2 dentist tell me I had 12-13 cavities that must be filled. I took 6 months to improve my health and tooth care before getting a 3rd opinion. I was told I had 0 cavities. It's been 15 years and I have only had 1 small cavity. Don't put too much trust in others to do what is best for you.
It's always good to question the advice you receive, get second opinions and do your research :D
same here i dont trust dentist i got 9 unnesseary fillings and a root canal
@@ESOrthodontics is there anyway i can get my wisdom teeth back or is it permanently damage?
Depends on how crowded the teeth are, what type of bad bite someone has, their soft tissue profile etc. Sometimes extractions are the best option. Any good dentist or orthodontist will be able to explain why it's better than your alternatives. Be suspicious when someone rules out an option entirely, in that case they're likely following a recipe and not as aware of other treatment modalities.
Exactly, I had extractions due to bimaxillary protrusion and it was the best decision ever
Hey I have a question. I got two upper pre molar extractions for my severe overbite I don’t have a flat face already but I am scared it might turn out that way. Do you think retractions my severe overbite will help my facial appearance or ruin it?
@@dayagarcia8159 too many factors to say. Depends on how crowded your teeth were, the molar/canine relationships, your overbite/overjet extent. If you trust the person caring for you then you should be able to discuss your concerns with them for reassurance.
@@keithratcliff7896 that doesn’t help. I don’t trust my orthodontist that’s why I’m moving offices, do you have just a general idea? I have a severe overbite with no crowing I believe. Should I reverse the treatment bc they haven’t fully closed yet if at all.
@@dayagarcia8159 you're getting free advice on UA-cam and giving me next to no information to work with. I can't give you a helpful answer without more information. You may be misunderstanding the difference between overbite and overjet. It doesn't add up that you had no crowding and two upper premolars extracted to correct an overbite issue.
I hope you can take some time reading my experience. I was supposed to get 4 premolar extracted today, instead I only got 2. The right lower and upper. They gave me 10 cartridges of local anesthesia which is more than necessary and keep in mind this is only one side of my teeth. It was so painful and stressfulI, the dentist didn’t want to give me more anesthesia after the already overwhelming amount. As she started, I couldn’t feel her pry my gums but as she clamped and pulled my teeth left and right was when the pain subtly make itself known. The thing is I have 3 roots that are longer, and thinner than normal. First 15 sways left and right didn’t feel that bad but that was no where near enough to pull my teeth. I’m not joking when I say this, It took maybe 100 sways left and right to pull out one tooth. It was a grueling experience, I felt very lightheaded from the pain, and pressure. Once the dentist knew it wouldn’t go out easily, I felt her frustration as she gripped harder with her metal pliers. She grabbed the tooth from a higher position, I felt it on a portion of my gums as she continuously squeezed and yanked left and right. Imagine the sharp roots ripping and poking the sensitive nerves and tissue inside that socket. In my head as I watched them fumble with my mouth how much they don’t care whether the tooth come out in one piece or not. There is no technique with the pliers I thought, something so simple but oh so painful, If only they knew what I was feeling in the heat of that moment. In the end they recommended me to a specialist because they are nervous of pulling the last 2 pre-molars. I could tell something was off with them as the general dentist spoke she stuttered and uttered her sentences. Perhaps she ruptured more tissue than good I thought or maybe she should’ve done a thorough inspection of x-ray before pulling my teeth. Now I’m laying in bed as I write this. Why do we have to put ourselves through this unnecessary drama and trauma to look a certain way. I think if I told my ortho I won’t do business with them if they want my pre-molars pulled they would’ve agreed. All in all dentists,ortho are business people who want money. Don’t be fooled by “We just want best for you” They recommend you to other known oral practitioners who don’t give a damn just as much as they for reputation or to close a relationship. I want to share this message as a chance to give others I wish someone gave me to doubt and rethink your decision before the day come. You won’t know whether it was worth it or not until after the whole ordeal. You must know whats best for you.
What’s the update now I got 2 premolar extracted on the right side recently and I had a similar experience, I’m really nervous
I had similar experience. They are more erroneous dentists than medical doctors in general medicine. Complications of suffering from nerve damage, lost of hearing, etc. These experiences are everywhere, every country. Also, seek to know the specialty of the dentist, and the treatment is within the specialty of the dentist
I feel so bad reading this, it's been a year, how are you, are you feeling better?
@@alsimanchesame thing happened to me too, I ended up talking a whole lot of painkillers and vitamin b, it's subsided but never gone
ok, look. i have damon braces, and i had to get 4 teeth extracted. and honest to god, nothing bad happened. in fact, i love how the procedure changed my face. because of it, my jawline is much more defined and my face is slimmer. my face isn’t sunken in or anything - it’s only very minor differences that enhance my face lmao. don’t be worried, your orthodontist has been studying for years and if they recommend having teeth extracted, listen to them as they know what they’re doing.
The advice you give here, we do agree with in general terms. It is important though that when selecting an Orthodontist you work with someone who takes into account the entire facial profile and not just the profile of the teeth. Which is why we are very insistent on making sure that patients are educated prior to making investments.
@Abhishek Singh This is the dumbest list. Can't yawn? What?
Because damonbraces counteract the effects of teeth removal, but idealy you'd want to only have damonbraces, for a wider smile.
@Vineet Mishra dont extract unless you have protruding teeth.. gap is needed to fix protusion.
Treating the symptoms but not the cause. Why is it our ancestors had room for every single tooth but modern humans in western societies need extraction just to achieve a decent U shape? How come every other mammal on earth have every tooth and perfect occlusion?
Don’t extract, EXPAND the reason anyone ‘needs’ teeth extracting is because the jaw is under-developed.
Make the face fit the teeth, not the teeth fit the face!
The comments pushed me towards not doing it im incredibly greatfull to have learned this ahead of time thank yoy
I got 2 teeth in my bottom jaw removed because of severe overcrowding. My orthodontist said that I could just get braces without extractions but it would make me have a big underbite and flared teeth. I think I made the right choice because I'm already seeing nice results
How it's going now?
@@zigsaw7161 i'm done with braces! I love the results my face looks even better and so do my teeth :)
@@elena_221b4 oh nice to hear that keep going:)
After extraction how long it take for the good adjustment of the teeth?
@@aaratikhadka730 i think it took about 2-3 months
Hmmm but my brother gotten four teeth taken out and his smile looks beautiful now 🥺💕
his palate is now artificially narrow.
Nathanial what does that mean ?
You should compare his pre treatment x ray and post treatment x ray to see if his airway stays the same or smaller. And if you can get his condyle (TMJ) taken pre and post then you need to have it check to see if the space between the joints and the skull is healthy. Remember, orthodontics isn't about straighten the teeth. It has to do with the Airway and TMJ as well. You don't want to have a painful gorgeous smile while gasping for air.
Bro there is a gap in ur brother's teeth. After removing the braces.
How about his profile an palate ?
Hi, I got 2 consultations from 2 different orthodontists. I have 2 front teeth a little bit overbite and crowding teeth, but no messy teeth. The first one told me to extract 4 teeth to get some space to do braces. They took 3-D photos of my teeth and told me to extract 4 teeth. I can choose not to do extractions, but the result will make my mouth move forward. The second did a quick vision check of my teeth. He told my teeth was crowding but no need extraction. Both of them told me to do braces for 2 years. I am so confused about their different advices. I am gonna try to see the third orthodontist and see what he will say. Thank you for your sharing. My dad told me to keep natural teeth if possible.
Hi I’m in the same situation except I saw 5! 3 said to extract while 2 said no need extract . What did you decide and how are your teeth? Also the orthos that want to extract said the same thing that my teeth would go forward. I think it’s a scare tactic
How did this work out? What have you decided?
how is your teeth plz reply
I had 6 of my teeth removed 4 for my braces and 2 because I had impacted wisdom teeth. It turns out great. No sunken cheeks or under/over bite. My face looks the same, the only change is that my teeth are straighter than ever before, which is great. I think it's not necessarily a bad thing to have your teeth removed. It's only a few ppl who had bad experience after the removal.
Same! I got my brackets on but I dont have my wires yet because i need to get 4 of my Permanent teeth extracted plus 2 of my wisdom teeth. Im scared to see the results...
sheesh 6 teeth 😳 how long ago did you have them removed?
I m very scared to go for braces now😰
@stoic i got 4 teeth extracted a week ago…i’m worried about my future health now):
@@angelmon588 same these comments are giving me anxiety
I got my braces 6 months ago. I told my orthodontist that I do not want to remove any of my teeth. He said ok. But after 4 months he told me, you have to remove your 2 upper teeth. I told him NO. I will never do it. Find a solution you are the orthodontist, you have to fix it. He gave me rubber bands to put them. Yesterday he told me, you do not need to remove your teeth. I can see the improvement, he said. Well, sometimes orthodontist suggest this solution to remove teeth, I think because they want to straighten your teeth quickly, and they want more space for it by removing your teeth. But please, clearly tell her, or him. NO. Removing a tooth is very easy for them. But when you want to implant a tooth, then they are asking for $7000 for only one tooth. (Australia).
?? by logical thinking if you have already closed the space orthodontically then there's no space for an implant... it's not possible. implant will not be an option unless further measures are taken.
Did you have an overjet? How many mm?
Hey how’s your face now? I’ll be beginning my invisalign/braces journey soon and have read some awful stories about teeth extraction. So I will be avoiding it at all costs. Could you elaborate on the elastics thing you brought up? I’ve heard retraction like that can mess up the face too. Please help!
I regret it so much my smile look so ugly 😢
@@Bubushabb from removing teeth?
Having this done at the age of 13 ruined my life. I am 30 now with horrible TMJ , Sleep Apnea, constant headaches and pain. It's going to cost 35k to get treatment and fix. I'd do anything to have not had this done.
happened to me too. I've already spent around that much. and will have to spend more.
@@teethree141did you have this done and regret it ? I’m getting this surgery soon and I’m in my 20s?
Wait...WHAT? What happened?
Emma Stone had extractions for severe overbite and she looks great. I really want to know how she was treated. Also Catherine Zeta Jones had 4 bicuspid extractions as well. I believe the key is in pulling the rear molars forward rather than the fronts back.
I am not really sure how to answer your question because I don't know any of her circumstances.
She has nice shaped teeth and that adds a dimension to her smile that makes it distinguished.
There are certain things I notice about her smile that may be characteristic of extraction therapy and its impact are mitigated by other facial features that affect one's smile.
E&S Orthodontics I got my upper braces installed yesterday, and my Ortho mentioned how huge my over bite was. He said the gap was almost 2 fingers in length, (when I bite down the proper way.) I have already removed 4 wisdom teeth, but he recommends that i removed 2 more (the tooth behind each upper canine.) He says it will really help my occlusion, and my overbite. I’ve read so many of these comments online, I’m scared to remove these teeth but I would assume a dentist knows what he’s saying. I want to also get my moneys worth of this ortho treatment; would you say that in most situations regarding a fairly big overbite, extraction of these teeth is necessary for an improved smile? I’d appreciate your feedback.
@@jennygurly09 how did you decide? if you had extractions how much did it change your face?
@@jennygurly09 so did u extract ur teeth cause my orthodontist says the same thing
26M here, I've extracted my 4 premolars when I was around 13-14 to put on braces. Now my teeth are straigth. But I feel like my life took a downward spiral somewhere around my teenage years and I couldn't explain why or when exactly. In my teenage years I disliked my face as I thought that it was not growing like it was supposed to be. I had a great singing voice that became a lot worse for a reason that I couldn't pin point. I was already a shy kid, but I became even more shy. Around high school I developed chronic nose congestion. I thought that I was doing something wrong or that there was something wrong with me. Because of all these things and a bunch more that I can't cover here I became a low self-worth/confidence adult. For my adult years, I tried so hard trying to fix what I thought was wrong with me. Now I'm better, I have more knowledge and I can deal with my created insecurities in a better way. I like my face better now, as I should, if you take into account how much emphasis I've put on my health these past years (working out, eating right). But I still think it's not what my face would/should look like had I not extracted my teeth. My voice never reached the pre extraction era. For context, now I just have a good singing voice, meaning I'm on pitch, but it's nowhere near the innate ability/ease I had to manipulate it in a way that could wow some people. All in all, I wish I've never had the extractions, but I can't travel back in time. I don't know if I have sleep apnea although I do know I used to snore in my teens ( now I think I snore less). Sometimes I think if I didn't have them, I would grow up as a much more normal kid, which would alter most of my experiences, which would make me a completely different person today.
Start mewing by Dr.Mike Mew
used to have an open bite (5mm) and most orthodontists had suggested extractions since I couldn't afford surgery. So I opted for a camouflage technique instead, osseous genioplasty to fix my protruding chin, 4 premolar extractions (wisdom teeth had already been extracted), lingual braces with tads for 2 years. I now have wire attachments behind my front teeth and wear a retainer for 12 hours a day and a tongue crib to better help me position my tongue. It has been worth it.
Okay so my mom is planning on getting me braces soon but why do I only have 28 teeth? Is that normal or

have them explain, and also tell them what worries you and make sure they are professional, when dealing with your teeth.

Great comment!!! I am totally in alignment with the need for several opinions!
Same my teeth are perfect aligned and everything but I have to get both of my molars pulled because of cavities so yea I’m fine with that
I just extracted 2 today, and 2 will be next month. I ve discussed very seriously with my dr and showed her this video. She said there will be no modify in my face appeareance. She also had braces and extracted 6 teeth. Anyway i ll be back with picts before and after extractions.
Pretty please. I just got installation of braces today but need to extract 4 teeth after 2 months. The doctor said that it would be easier to extract teeth that time since the bone tissue have soften. Update us pleease.

@@ashtarsheran971 I also don't want extraction. What are other options other than extraction?
I really hate my teeth man. I got 4 of my premolars taken several years ago when I was a younger teen. Obviously I didn’t think about it at the time and I just did whatever the dentist told my parents to do. Now, I honestly regret ever having them taken off. I don’t take the taking of any natural body part off lightly, especially is there are alternatives... Now, I can see the negatives of this. I now have a super ugly smile, I have a big smile gap on each side of my mouth (like a small smile of that makes sense), and I feel as if it’s made my face look more sunken and weak and that these extractions took away my beautiful facial features and made my facial features look less defined. I’m furious now I wish there was a way to get those teeth back or somehow make it so i can make room again and put in some teeth there.. I would do anything to have 4 teeth back.. real teeth, artificial teeth, implants anything honestly.. man I would accept rocks implanted in my teeth rather than have my teeth the way it is right now. or at least I wish there was somehow a solution.. guys if you are reading this and your dentist/orthodontist or whatever tells you to get teeth extractions do *NOT* go through with it if there are alternatives, which there most likely are.. Those teeth are there for a reason, if not your body would’ve never had them in the first place.. I’d rather have my teeth crooked than have 4 teeth extracted honestly.. I also am very convinced that it gave me the speaking problems I have right now.. it’s not that big of a problem but I find it hard to pronounce certain sentences, like I feel like it gave me a speech impediment or something... guys someone please help I’ve been so gloomy lately because of this..

Such a great video. I had 8 teeth pulled when I was 18 yrs old with traditional braces. I have had an extremely narrow and high arch due to this which has caused me to suffer from obstuctive sleep apnea for many years. Don't extract teeth unless absolutely necessary and go with the wide Damon type smile to maintain room for your tongue and increased airway.
I have little over bite and my orthodontist recommend that I got 4 teeth out, he say that is better because if I just do the normal braces isn't going to help me that much ( cause I have like 2-3mm of over bite and my teeth is growing outward, ) he also show me some pics of the similar extraction and she look amazing) but I'm little skeptical about it . Can you give me some advice about it.
Thank you very much for creating this video, explaining so much, and providing great detail in easy to understand terms. We are hoping to avoid extraction. I appreciate the timely follow up to my email to your office. Very generous of you to provide a professional 2nd opinion. Many thanks!!

@@shjr5148 hmm maybe they’re just trying to scare you into getting an extraction. Unless you have extra teeth in your mouth definitely don’t do. Dentists are the laziest people ever.

Honestly I have the biggest resentment towards people in this profession, our teeth are important and the amount of teeth in our mouth matters. So if your teeth are not rotting and are healthy, don’t remove them! I don’t see how it could make your overbite worse if you don’t.
My orthodontist told me to extract 4 of my teeth. I have slight overbite with no space.I'm so depressed 😟
Was the suggested extraction to make room for correction? Is there an alternate method the orthodontist can implement?
DON'T DO IT! EXPAND
@@ESOrthodontics yes for the me the same case. She's saying space is needed, also proximal stripping is an option she said but that'd damage the enamel. She's pushing me for 4 extractions of my premolars after a span of 1.5 years now. What shall I do? I'm too confused :((((
just saying, my first orthodontist said i didn’t need teeth pulled. got braces and two years later had straight teeth, wore my retainer as they told me to and here i am today, a week post tooth extraction for braces again because my teeth went right back to the way they were before :) everyone is different
Omg I have a similar issue. I already wore braces once without pulling my teeth off. Even after wearing retainers for 3 years once I removed the retainers my teeth started shifting and they are almost back to their original form. When I checked with a new dentist they are recommending 4 pre molar extractions for better alignment and to avoid relapse. They are saying they can close my gap alone without pulling my teeth but if I need the overbite fully corrected I need to extract 4 teeth. I'm very confused and scared. What do you suggest at this point? I'm almost 23 already.

Extractions to make space, is not the way we would recommend.
@@ESOrthodontics what?! But Why not?
I have very crowded teeth&small jaw my doctor said i have to extract 4 teeth what should i do🙁🙁
Going by what you said, if there is overcrowding the teeth will straighten out and fill those gaps without losing your projection.
If you don't get those teeth removed there will not be enough space and you will end up with straight but flared (sloping) teeth. You will then hate them and get extractions anyway adding another 12/18 of treatment.
Having spent a while reading as much as I can on this my conclusion is that this is down to a general fear of tooth extraction as there is an element of crossing the Rubicon about it. I'm getting my upper pre molars out in 4 days to sort out my severe overjet 9.5mm. My upper lip is puffed right out. My consultants decided against jaw surgery and opted for upper extraction and possible genioplasty to create balance instead.
Every case is different, trust your ortho, they are pretty good now.

Hello Dr. O El-Hillal from E&S Orthodontics!! Really liked the video, thanks for sharing!! I am a 21 year old male considering braces. What are your thoughts on wisdom teeth only extractions? Do the consequences with having teeth pulled out that you talk in the video such as thinning of lips, profile flattening out, etc. apply to wisdom teeth only extractions? Does wisdom teeth only extractions to a 21 year old cause any change in jaw, profile, aesthetics, or anything regarding facial appearance in the short or long term? And lastly, are they really necessary (wisdom teeth extractions)? Will extracting them 6 months before getting my braces affect the outcome (versus doing it after braces)?
Looking forward for your answer, thanks!!
Hi Omar, This is a question I get asked quite regularly so I did a blog post on it here www.esorthodontics.com/extract-wisdom-teeth-prior-orthodontic-treatment/ as well as a video on it here: ua-cam.com/video/6kzjB9uMeZI/v-deo.html
yesterday i have extracted my left side upper premolar and today after watching you video i came to orthodontic to remove my braces. i have learnt lesson i will never again try to change my natural body posture, it may lead to other issues. i have accepted my body as it is. thankyou doctor. you saved me. today i supposed to loss my 2 premolar.
Updates , even I had 2 extracted. :(
Why there is a need for extraction in some cases ?.....
Can i have the treatment without extraction ?
What would happen if I'll go for it without extraction ?
(I have scissor bite )
Plz suggest ....
Hey. The reason why we need extractions in some cases is simply space. We may need space for correction of irregular teeth or if the teeth are placed too far in front, we need space to bring them back in. Simply put, when an orthodontist suggests removal of teeth, he needs space to correct some problem.
@Shanalotte we do expand palate in cases where the palate is narrow and patient is very young. But if palate width is already normal and we need space, expanding further will result in failure of treatment due to several reasons.
@Shanalotte Its not as straightforward like that. Extractions does not mean all patients get a hollow look if they go ahead with extractions. A lot of it comes down to space requirements and management. For eg: you need 14 mm space for correction of crooked teeth and you get that 14mm space by extraction of 2 teeth, Inthis case your teeth will get aligned without any hollowing of the smile. But, if you need 9mm of space and you remove 2 teeth, you have extra 5mm of space. To get rid of this space, your teeth will need to move back and narrow a bit. Im putting this in simple terms. But, you can see how extractions does not equal bad results in all cases.
@@forextrading4u are you an orthodontist.?? If yes then plzzz answer me..actually I got my braces done without extraction just few days ago but I'm scared whether I'll get the perfect result....& also does it go back to the earlier position after few years of treatment...????
@@Shahana_Aijaz Yes, Im an orthodontist. I cant really comment on your case as I dont know anything about your issue. Discuss any doubts you have with your orthodontist.

I have a little bit of over bite and thinking about getting braces. The reason I'm hesitate on getting them is my orthodontist told me I have to get 4 of them pulled to make space, and I'm very scare, plus do not want to lose my good teeth. I've heard about Damon braces, but don't know much about it, and there're not so many orthodontist does that where I live. I'm so glad I found your video and thank you for your advice.
Thanks for the comment Kelly. Damon is a great system and most users of Damon do not need to extract teeth. Good luck with your treatment!
Pulling healthy teeth should only be a last resort to surgery.
It's lazy orthodontics to pull teeth to make their job easier and it totally changes your face and jaw structure.
Kelly Nguyen did you remove? If not then dont do it 🙏🏻
E&S Orthodontics but even you use Damon system like I have right now if there is no space at all on your teeth then you have no choice to remove the teeth I guess. Just an opinion
My orthodontist also wants to remove two other teeth and I have braces for 2 years now. My teeth are straight in the lower jaw after correcting them. She mentioned stripping the teeth but now she dropped that idea. I asked Dr. O and he said he would not remove those teeth. Today I went to see an orthodontist and she looked really professional. She also said that she wouldn’t extract those teeth but she would make space by stripping the teeth a bit. I am fine with that. Damn it, this is a hard issue.
great to hear that you want and had a second opinion. Always ask tough questions and ensure you are 100% confident with your treatment recommendation.

I have overbite, my orthodontist recommended remove two theet, I think pre molars, not only for alignment but also because those are still baby theet (I'm 26). So he suggest to take those off and work with the space created so in the future I do not have to use spacers if I loose those theet (he says I'll probably loose those earlier when I grow older). What would you recommend?
Update?
@@valeriemanuel7168 I've read a lot about this since then. The first thing I learned is that if I had no taken off those theet, I would have ended up losing them at an "early age" (40-50 yo). I'd have needed a spacer or insert then, but spacers are uncomfortable, and inserts are expensive. I also learned that a good orthodontist aims to achieve a profile you will like, they explain you the possible appearance changes you will experience, in your mouth (theet, smile, lips) and your face in general, including the profile. If they don't do that, you better look for another orthodontist. And the most important thing, a good orthodontist will care not only for appearance but for functionality :)

I really don't know what to do, I really need help.
Dats The Tea hi! I’m no orthodontist or anything but I do have braces (I’m assuming this is for braces) I would recommend you go to another ortho, if mine had told me they were going to extract teeth I would’ve gone somewhere else because teeth are there for a reason!!!

Just shop around. You will get different opinions. All orthos will be comfortable with different methods, some unorthodox or even risky.

did you ask the second opinion orthodontist, why they recommended extractions? What was your purpose for the second opinion? Did you not feel comfortable with your first treatment plan?
E&S Orthodontics The reason I went to another ortho is because Im looking for best price options but was surprised when they want extraction. I had expanders for a year so this will be phase 2. Might as well go back to my 1st ortho? Is there a chance of flare in the future?
I would go back to the first orthodontist. Extractions may have been a cheaper way to achieve your results. As you know, often when looking for cheaper options, you may have to sacrifice quality.
Pulling teeth might be just the quicker and easier solution, which is not a good approach. What did you do in the end?

Amazing points! My question is would the crowded teeth stretch the bone and make your lip look forward or sticking out from profile
I have never heard that concept before "stretch the bone." Crowding can lead to your teeth being flared. The degree of flaring can impact your profile for both the positive and negative. Your lip could stick out.
What if the flare is pretty extensive but subtle at the same time
I had braces once already really want to get them again but extract this time
this is why you get orthodontic treatment at an early age so they could expand your jaws to fit more teeth and negate extractions in the future
if your past the age of 18 i’m sorry to say this but if you have serious crowding you need extractions or surgery since you’re past the growth stage
DON’T get extractions! I had 4 teeth extracted and it made my palate smaller which reduced space for my large tongue. So after braces my teeth became flared with an overjet/protrusion. Never had this issue before braces. I also became a mouth breather and started drooling in my sleep.
