Bicuspid Extractions - Upper First Bicuspids

[tanman1346]

i have regular braces. i hope they will make as full smile as damon braces do..

[tanman1346]

if u get damon braces u dont have to get extractions. in most cases. thats what i've been told.

I have the same exact thing except i didnt get my biscuids removed. I had my braces on since july and will be getting them off in 2 years. Cant wait!!!!!!!

Omg i had this when i was in third grade *now in 8th grade* same exact thing but they had to expand my jaw first : /

My upper first premolars were removed last January 2011 and now my dentist told me that he has to REMOVE another teeth again. This time, my second upper premolar. Is that normal?

@lepaparazzi100 I doubt so. I regret so much getting my two bicuspids extracted. What was I thinking... getting two healthy teeth out? Anyways, I think you should get another dentist or at least a second opinion. If s/he takes your premolars out, your lower molars will have no support because your upper ones will move to the front (note on the video that the last lower molar has no support/no chewing partner). Best of luck!

I have to have those teeth removed before I get braces

cuz that looked alot less painful than using an expander
