June 2, 2015
Asked By:Danzy in Sacramento, CA

I've been to a few orthodontic consultations due to 4 bicuspids extracted for braces at 14.The Ortho told me I had 2 options.The first,would be to open up the extraction sites and fill them with implants along with an expander and a reverse Headgear.The second,would require the same as above but,they will work on shifting my molars forward along with my impacted wisdom teeth to replace the missing teeth.My dentist told me an expander will ruin my bite at 19.What should I do?Please no surgery.
