Any Orthodontists out there?!


Question: I am getting a 'Radiance' Brace fitted next month and my Orthodontist says there is no need to take any of my Teeth out to make room for the realignment as he can just shave some of my Teeth to make them smaller to make room.
Surely doing this will damage my Teeth, make them sensitive, prone to staining etc? is this normal practice? because I don't like the sound of it.

I feel that to deny a treatment or be skeptical about a dental procedure just because of a tiny reason that you dont like its sound--- please dont be afraid. Your orthodontist is the best judge -- he is rather saving your teeth from extraction by suggesting shaving off the required teeth--- and please note, they take all precautions to prevent subsequent sensitivity, to make it less prone to staining. Yes, of course, to make room for realignment sometimes they have to resort to slicing-- which is very much a normal practice. God Bless and Merry Christmas !!
