Many people and parents who come for orthodontic consultation are often confused: Why do I need to have my teeth extracted? What a pity to have a healthy and good tooth extracted? The first of these is to make sure that you have a good idea of what you’re getting. 1, first of all, is not everyone orthodontic teeth need to be extracted? No, not all orthodontic friends need to pull teeth. The doctor’s advocacy is also not to extract teeth orthodontic as much as possible, not that the extraction of teeth is not good for the body, but because the correction of non-extracted teeth usually takes less time. There are two main indicators to consider when extracting teeth: the degree of crowding and the degree of tooth protrusion. These two indicators are measured by the doctor through scientific measurements combined with the complaints of the orthodontic friend. Nowadays, the general aesthetics of Oriental people believe that the lips are a little concave, the face is more upright and attractive; this is especially important for female friends, many girls come to the clinic hoping that the lips can be taken in a little, then often need to extract teeth to achieve the purpose. The male child is slightly different, we generally believe that the male child face slightly protruding a little, appearing more masculine; of course, not too protruding, the degree of grasp of the doctor and orthodontic friends need to communicate well, the doctor according to the specific circumstances of the basic judgment, after the design of a suitable program. 2, why pull teeth? Tooth extraction is to provide space for teeth correction. The existence of crowding is more serious friends, need to extract teeth to get enough space for correction. For those who have protruding teeth and want to retract them internally, they also need to be extracted to provide space. The reason why teeth have to be extracted is because there is not enough space, so usually there is no need to set the teeth after orthodontic treatment, and the space left by the extracted teeth will be closed.
