BRACES 101: Tooth Extractions For Braces! | Treatment Minute Talk! 

This helped me a lot, my orthodontist told me that I need braces but I still have a milk tooth in one side (without the permanent under it) so she has to remove it and thanks to that, I will not need any permanent tooth to be removed.

Thanks a lot doctor I was so concerned about removing my two healthy teeth to get over my over bite

Thanks. My two teeth also were extracted today. Of course I am upset, but we have made a choice. So this is the result. I hope it worths when process completed.

I just removed 4 teeth this afternoon and I feel really regret 😭😭

You don't need to get Your teeth extracted. I had braces with a rubber band around the back of my head to avoid my teeth getting extracted. It hurt so much I had to scream for two years - but I don't regret it. I have the most perfect teeth a person ever had.

I was asked to remove 4 of my teeth. These comments saved me from making that decision

I had too many teeth with a class 3 open bite/cross bite. I never had my wisdom teeth extracted as a kid and my parents just didn't find it necessary to invest in orthodontic treatment which resulted in my wisdom teeth fully erupting and pushing my jaw forward. Not by a super noticeable amount to the average eye, but it did affect my speech and limited my ability to tear food. additionally, my bite would rest on the back teeth creating an anterior open bite and cross bite. in order to correct that to class 1, all my wisdom teeth had to be extracted and use of a motion appliance was prescribed to create space on the bottom teeth so they could be pulled back to create class 1 alignment. they have since removed the motion appliance and removing the wisdom teeth decreased the time i would wear it; I was then fitted for full damon braces with elastic wear so they could maintain the class 1 bite while working on the open bite and use the wire changes to aid in palatal expansion, but towards the end it might require some aid with box elastics on the sides for detailing. I did this because jaw surgery really wasn't and still isn't an option monetarily. My profile was considered good that jaw surgery didn't have to be done. I would def recommend if an ortho recommends extractions for overcrowding that is messing up a bite take the advice seriously. Trying to only do braces and elastics will only extend treatment time and you may likely have to end up getting those extractions deep into treatment because the orthodontist can only do so much with the amount of room they have or worse, you'll be out of braces and be more prone to relapse.

Had my front tooth pulled 2 weeks ago now in braces I don’t know what the hell I was thinking it’s embarrassing 😢😢 still getting JAW SURGERY SMH 🤦🏽

I just had some of my teeth extracted on Monday, On Tuesday they rewired me. I am in so much pain, but I am sure it will be worth it in the end.

Age 20s, I have been undergoing orthodontic treatment since last 13 months. Have four lower crooked teeth. At the beginning of the treatment, after a couple of months, the dentist extracted one incisor tooth, and after 7 to 8 months (present), one incisor tooth suffered bone loss, and the dentist is suggesting I go ahead with the second incisor tooth extraction because expansion is not happening. I am not sure about this.

i got two teeth removed today bcse my pregnancy really did a number on them . but i also have crowded teeth so the teeth that are gone are able to shift into their place hopefully ? i get braces in a few weeks to fix my crowding and overbite so i hope i like my new smile

I just got 6 teeth removed right now 2 wisdom teeth and 4 premolars I had 33 teeth. The numbing needles hurt not the extraction.

I have too much protrusion and i look ugly, therefore i had 4 teeth extracted which i think is for the better😢

It would be nice to get a good looking smile and get under bite fixed but. This f ing sucks man ! 😭, I got 3 removed and the last one failed with the root left and need little surgery to remove it 😭

I got 4 teeth removed it don't hurt the needle can feel abit uncomfortable but then it goes numb so your fine

Dr when you remove two upper teeth is it must to put braces the lower ones or u can put only the uper side???

My upper midline aligns with my facial midline, but the lower midline is 3mm off to the left. An orthodontist advised me to remove the lower right first premolar so as to align the teeth. My lower right wisdom teeth is in bad condition and I am considering to remove it, but I am afraid of removing two teeth on the same quadrant. Does anyone have any idea whether I can remove only the lower right wisdom tooth which is bad anyway to make room for correcting and aligning the upper and lower midlines?

But in defence academy physical test 14 dental points should be satisfied Does this removal of teeth effect the chance of passing my physical test

My orthodontist saying to remove one lower central incisor . I have class 1 malocclusion and my lower lateral incisors are rotated approximately 45°.

Is it normal to extract the second premolars and not the first?

how about removing wisdom teeth, would that help with correcting overbite with brace?

How does that affect the space for the tongue 👅?

I got an anterior over bite , 2 extractions on top and two extractions on the bottom. My top 3rd molars are coming out. And the bottom 3rd molars haven’t shown signs of doing so yet in the X-rays . When do you recommend to do braces I’m 26.

I just removed 2 teeth today removing 2 on monday to make it 4 premolars, i had a bite plane for 4 molars , there is alot of charge

Dentist na meray 4 teeth remove karnay ka bola ha before braces treatment kiya mujhay nikalwanay chahiya is ka koi side effect to nahi

Thanks Doc!

Yeah I'm getting one tooth pulled bottom jaw teeth. For jaw surgery prep . Do need it gone for braces because my thin gum tissue

I have an overbite that’s deep my doctor plans to remove two teeth not sure when it will happen I just got my braces on

I already removed 8 of my teeth last month and its complety fine..the recovery proses suprisingly very fast Pain rate:4/10👍🏻

Does it have to be molar teeth?

I just removed 4 premolars will it really ruin my face even more?

Hi, doctor told me that I need to either get my lower jaw pushed forward or have 2 teeth removed to make space for braces, pushing my front together. I don’t have any bite issues; he says the procedure would be basically purely cosmetic. I don’t want to go with the first option because I don’t want to change my face (I look horrible with my jaw pushed forward.) My question is: is the extraction option worth it? I am not overly bothered by my pushed forward front teeth although I just have to pay attention to smile less. I would quite like personally to have braces though. Does anyone know if extracting 2 teeth leads to future complications?? Will it change my looks; potential for the worse? Thanks!!

I’m getting 4 teeth removed next month and I’m kinda scared that it could make my face sunken.

I’m getting two teeth extracted bc I have a over bitw

I lost 2 of my lower molar teeth left and right. My treatment plan is to close the gaps through braces. However, they also need to remove two perfectly healthy upper molar teeth. If I didn't follow the recommendation because I can't do extraction, what are my consequences if I left the space with missing teeth untreated? Hope you can answer. 🙏🥺

Good

I don't know whether you will respond to my comment but i really need suggestions on filling up gap after extraction. I had four extractions 6 months ago and three sides are moving perfectly but one side (lower left side) is not moving because i have placed crown on that side due to which the teeth are not moving, not even a small bit. Now my doctor is saying we will use implant to fill that gap. I am worried as the teeth should be perfectly placed on both sides (upper and lower side). I don't know what should i do. Please i need your suggestions

I have flaring I have a bad bite and bad crowding on my bottom teeth so I have to get An extraction also to reduce flaring I mean I don’t want my smile to look like a horse

How painful is it to get 2 healthy teeth removed? Seems so extreme.

Will you have q long term gap

I have a overbite and got told a week ago in 2 years I will need 4 teeth removed for braces 😢

I got 2 teeth removed and immediately regretted it Felt like I should just keep my overbite and move on I hate my dentist for doing it so suddenly But yeah let's wait and see P.s. Sudumamma be like නැට්ට පිටින් අලි මැරෙන්නෙ ;)

why cant you just expand the jaw to make room for the teeth?

You are awesome mannn

Does it hurt the teeth?😂

What do you think about situation when I don’t have 2nd premolars on the right side (up and down), but I have them on the other side? They never erupted and I wanted to get rid of that asymmetry😢 is it a good idea to remove 2nd premolar teeth on the other side?

No thanks, I'm not gonna remove my perfectly healthy teeth for little overbite. REMEMBER, TOOTH EXTRACTIONS CAN RUIN YOUR FACE

It is a big deal and it does have long term negative health results. Your jaws will shrink and will affect your airway. I wouldn’t go to your office. A functional bite comes first aesthetics come second. You’re ruining lives. If an orthodontist recommends removing your teeth it’s time to find another and keep going till you find one that offers a more holistic approach than these basic ass orthodontists

Easiest way to ruin your face 😢. I regret it.
