Braces: Orthodontist says I can't get them? Help!?!

Question: I'm an adult. I have an overbite otherwise my teeth are perfectly straight. The ortho says that he would have to pull 4 teeth out and that would leave too much space in between my teeth. So he says he will not put any type of braces on me! So what do I do about my overbite??!!!

I've never heard of an orthodontist refusing to do work. Usually, they can do about anything to help you and also, they want your business.

Get a referral from your dentist for another orthodontist.

Everyone has a few teeth pulled to correct an overbite. See another orthodontist.
