Put braces on teeth

Question

Put braces on teeth

Asked for Female, 21 Years

My front teeth are little forward than they should be. I want to put braces on my teeth to force them inside. But I don't have gap between my teeth. So I'll have to remove 4 teeth (2 upper and 2 lower). But is it safe to remove 4 strong teeth to put braces? Will it affect eyes or brain?

Yes, it is absolutely safe to undergo extraction during the course of orthodontic treatment. Extraction of your teeth is unlikely to affect your eyes or brain. Its a common misconception. So please go ahead with the treatment. All the best.
