In the case of dental crowding is it enough to extract wisdom teeth?
Many people ask, whether it is enough to extract wisdom teeth to help to align of incisors, side teeth. Unfortunately the answer at the first approach is no. Namely, after the extraction of the wisdom teeth, other teeth will not go back by themselves, there is no chance that the problem of crowding will be solved by itself. On the other hand, in some cases with the help of orthodontics it might be possible to move side teeth backwards, to the place where wisdom teeth stood before. In such cases a place can be created and another tooth extraction can be avoided. The orthodontist examines these cases during the treatment planning.
