Removing Canine tooth(eyetooth)?!
Question:
Removing Canine tooth(eyetooth)?
well I have this canine tooth that sticks out like vampire teeth. I plan to get it removed cause all my other teeth are straight. And i don't use it to chew or anything because it sticks out. It can hurt my upper lip if i'm not careful. So what's your opinion on removing this canine tooth ?? Will it sag my face if i pull it out?? and Can it really affect your sight or eyes??

Answers:
They might not recommend having it pulled esp if it's a healthy tooth. Removing it might cause some of the teeth to shift or change your bite. I had the same thing and my dentist smoothed it out. Another option is braces or veneers. There's a lot of alternatives. It's best to see your dentist to discuss all the options. Good luck! =)
