One tooth is not in line

[Zac]

One of my teeth is not in line with the others, it's a premolar i think it is. Will need to get it removed or have a brace there?

It's my upper jaw

Hi there.. The first question to you is whether that particular premolar is causing you any kind of problem or not? If it is not causing any problem I don't see a need to extract the tooth. And as far as the ortho treatment goes You can opt for it. But again not necessary as the physical and mental trauma you have to go through once you start with the braces is much more than that caused by a single mal positioned premolar with no pain. Just my opinion.

 

[Zac]

No it doesn't hurt, just look werid, as I'm only 15. I might try to opt for ortho

 

[Dr.Vishwanath]

Yup... Good luck..

If it's not causing any problems I don't see why go through extraction. I had the same problem and opting for ortho was a very good decision.
