Facial deformity due to extractions?!


Question: Facial deformity due to extractions?
I am 13 years old and I just got 4 premolars extracted for orthodontic purposes. I have been reading and researching and apparently premolar extractions give the face a sunken look and a narrower smile, in short, deforming the face.

I am extremely worried as I do NOT want my face to become deformed or anything like that (Well who does?)

Can you please tell me what will happen to my face now that the extractions are done and have any of you had premolars extracted and if so, do you notice any facial changes?

Best Answer to the most detailed answer that answers all the above questions.

Help is greatly appreciated, thank you so muchh! Please help!!

your face will be different when you grow up extraction or not
no one looks the same when they're young and all grown up

when they extract premolars is because theres not enough room in your mouth
sunken face is usually with many teeth loss like people with no teeth left, older people

don't worry too much



Absolutely your face will not look as good, I had that done when I was twelve, they moved my jaw back so far to fill in the gaps that now I have a double chin and no jaw line. Also my face is very co- lapsed in causing me to look 10 years older. You will see these changes quickly as you start orthodontic treatment. I am now 33 and getting several opinions on fixing this, the problem is it's extremely costly for 4 implants, and after 5 years of bad orthodontics I'm not game on 3 more. I am very sorry for you.
