Answer: Correcting crowding
By Sarah h
Dental Professional
I am sorry you are not confident in your smile. Changing your smile will change so many things for you in life, especially your confidence. It is best not to remove teeth of possible. The easy solution for crowding seems to always be to remove teeth, however it is not the best long term. Orthodontic treatment can help you achieve the straight smile you have longed for while preserving your natural teeth. Straight teeth are naturally more healthy and can always be whitened if you choose. The process is longer, however the benefits are far greater than removing any teeth. Clear aligner therapy may be an option which would allow you to straighten your teeth without having the traditional wires and brackets bonded to your teeth. Start with an orthodontic consultation first to have a variety of options and an idea of your time commitment and cost.
