More from Dr. Hayes:
"Having teeth extracted is fairly typical pre-orthodontia work," said Dr. Hayes. "The logic is to remove teeth at an easy and safe time and then allow mother nature to move the remaining teeth into the empty space. Since mother nature is doing what comes naturally with a little timely guidance from us, there is less orthodontia time, less risk of root resorption and fewer visits to the orthodontist."
