I went to the orthodontist a while ago and was told I need two upper teeth removed, expanders for my upper teeth, and braces for my top and bottom possibly. I wanted to just get my canine tooth pulled since the overcrowding of my teeth on the top isn't bothering me as much. I was told it might be too late for the expanders and that they might have to break my jaw in order for it to work.
