Question:
My daughter has perfect teeth, with the exception of her eye teeth. They grew in on her gum and they stick out like fangs.
Can I just have the dentist pull them? I don't think she needs braces on her whole mouth for just those 2 teeth. Help me with the please. She is 14 yrs old. ...Visitor from IL
Answer:
Those cuspids are the strongest teeth in her mouth. They provide jaw
stability and proper facial growth. Your daughter needs functional
orthodontics. You can get more info on this at aafo.org. Don't take out
these teeth!
