Hi, I'm 37 years old. I still have my right baby cuspid and the adult tooth has come in above it. I noticed the baby tooth has a hole in the bottom of it and it's becoming discolored, which now I am thinking I have to have removed. What options are there to ensure my adult canine will move into place or are braces necessary?
