Binding teeth but need to remove 4 teeth

2017-10-14 06:34:56
I consulted one of the doctors about binding my teeth. He told me that he needs to remove 4 of my teeth, 2 upper jaw and 2 lower jaw to make sure that the teeth are equal. Will it affect my eye sight if i remove 4 teeth??

No it will not effect your eyesight. Removing teeth are in no way related to loss in eyesight it is a myth.
Next Steps
go ahead with the extraction and braces.

Hello, extraction of teeth do not affect your eye sight in any way. This is a common misconception. Extraction during orthodontic treatment is commonly done in order to gain space. Please go ahead with the treatment without being concerned about your eye sight. All the best.
