Q.
Hi I am keen to have corrective work carried out. My teeth are overcrowded on both levels and both top incisors are prominent as a result. I lost my milk teeth very late and still have a top row canine milk tooth. My question is, will my remaining milk tooth have to be removed prior to any braces being fitted? I am in my mid twenties and am obviously not looking forward to the prospect of being an adult brace wearer and the thought of having to lose an obvious tooth, wait for the adult one to grow in and then wear braces for a couple of years is a little too much to bear. Many thanks,
