Overjet of teeth

2018-05-29 16:30:35
I have been going through a orthodontics treatment of braces since one and a half years, I had a problem of over jet and front tooth was over the other one, straightening of the teeth are being done, and for the overjet my dentist created space through mini screws implant in jaw bone, so the overjet is reduced slightly, but I still feel my teeth are protuding can I go for tooth extraction now? After one and a half years? I still have braces on my teeth my treatment is not complete.
