Hi, friends,

I am in my early 30s and I have a little underbite problem. I wanna
correct this.

I also have 4 wisdom teeth. Will it help to extract the 4 wisdom teeth
before I do orthodontics to correct my underbite problem? Right now,
my wisdom teeth are not bothering me at all.

Thanks.

We can't tell from here - it won't help with the underbite but may be a
complicating factor if you choose to have orthodontic treatment

.. Most orthodontists will give a consultation at no cost. They will need
to see a radiograph (x-ray) to evaluate your third molars ( wisdom teeth).
Check with your regular dentist to find out if there is a recent radiograph
of that area. If not expect to be charged by the ortho for the x-ray. Then
you can be advised about both the underbite and wisdom teeth.

Consult with an orthodontist in person first.
