@khrystal1968 It's the same person from a dif. account. My ortho didn't pull my teeth. The oral surgeon did. There was too much crowding in my mouth. There was no way that my teeth would have straightened out if I didn't get those 4 teeth pulled. My teeth are looking awesome now. Only 2-3 more months. You can't even tell that teeth were pulled. Every case is different. What might be a quick fix for others, may not be for someone else.
Same here, and my Jaw Joints rub together from being pushed so far backwards to close the gaps. April, if you are unhappy with the smaller mouth you should reopen the gaps and get implants, I know you are a very positive person but the problems you could face in the future are not worth it. I wish you the best, Carrie

Any halfway decent orthodontist with any sort of craniofacial knowledge does not pull teeth. It's a quick fix. That's it.

Extractions shrink your face. I had it done and was NOT happy.

@chelagurl thank you!
no, I haven't had to wear rubberbands yet. I don't know if I'll ever have to wear them. We'll see. I hope not though...I hear they are painful.
