Teeth problem!?
Posted in Dental by: adminMay 21st, 2008
Ok soo tomorrow I have to go to the orthadonist and last time I went he gave me a choice . .. .
1.I have 2 teeth taken out and no headgear or
either headgear and I keep my teeth. What should I choose?! My family and friends say keep the teeth and wear headgear. But I’ve heard horror stories about how much headgear hurts?
Which one would be best for me?

Do you need the teeth is what is the most important. You know either way is going to hurt so I wld think aoutthat one first.

i say pull the teeth. i personally dont like headgears so if it was me i would choose the choice where u get ur teeth pulled out. besides it doesnt even hurt cause they give u a shot before it like a pain reliever.

Sometimes you wear the headgear and then later when you get the braces off having all those teeth still causes pressure, crowding, and teeth movement later. You won’t miss the teeth. I didn’t miss mine. They pulled them and a year and half later i was done w/ braces. However, the headgear route is probably going to add much more time to your treatment. Hope this helps, but what do you want?

OMG thats so similar to my situation!
I had to get baby teeth pulled also, my upper two ‘vampire’ teeth .. my orthodontist was like eathier get your teeth pulled now or have problems when you get older..
at first i was likee “omg no! im 16! im not having friggen teeth out of the FRONT of my mouth missing! no way! idont caree let me have ‘messed up teeth when i’m older’ ” and i swore & swore i would not get them pulled out, there was noo way!
but yea anywayss gues what happend? lol i DID wind up getting the teeth pulled! lol but now everythings fine & they’re growing in ..
seriously GET THEM PULLED! lol - it dosent hurt bc they numb it.. and why would you want headgear?! .. the pulled out teeth’s new ones will grow in shortly anyways..i knoww noone wants teeth missing, but the headgear? to me that’s 10x worse!!!
hope i helped! =] xo0x
& good luck tomorrow

Go with the headgear aren’t u only going to have to wear it at night? and also you’ll probably be much happier later in life cause you don’t have missing teeth.
