You may need more room in your smile because the space you have versus the amount and size of your teeth may not offer sufficient accommodation. Translation? Your type of misalignment is called overcrowding and taking some teeth away will permit you to end up with a balanced bite and pretty, uniform grin.
Often times, when you require a tooth extraction, it’s for a tooth that you need (and, as a result, you will need to replace it). When the removal is for a tooth that is in the way, the plan will not be to replace the tooth. Instead, the plan will be to close the space by pulling your remaining teeth together, likely with the help of braces. Remember, you needed that extra “real estate” in order to make way for your entire smile and its beautiful alignment.
This isn’t something you will come up with on your own. Either by visiting with us or by speaking with your orthodontist, you may discover that you have an overcrowded smile. Either our team or your orthodontic team will suggest the removal of teeth in order to provide the necessary additional space to continue an alignment plan.
