Hi,
removal of tooth in order to gain space for proper alignment of teeth is a routine procedure.
However, since you are in doubt you can certainly opt for second opinion from another orthodontist.

Removal of anterior teeth is one of the modalities of resolving space discrepancies, although a rarely used one.
Very limited indications are there for such treatment plan.
Your Orthodontist is the best judge of your situation.

During your ortho treatment, if you don't have enough space for alignment, we plan for extraction of your premolars to gain space... So you don't have to worry about extraction because after the treatment is completed, you will have a properly aligned teeth...
