Wow! I have a lower eye tooth like yours. What made them determine you had to have one pulled? I'm missing a molar so there is room for mine...wonder if it will throw my jaw off? I don't want a lop sided jaw :(

Funtobeme - My jaw is really small and the crowding was so bad there just wasn't any room without jaw surgery. At 47, I wasn't up for jaw surgery if we didn't have to do it. I was a good candidate for the lower incisor extraction so after a lot of angst and research I went for it. The deciding factor was really that the oral surgeon had the exact same thing done and when I saw his results, I was in. Hard to be an adult professional women who speaks in front of an audience for work and have a gap in the front, but the ortho said it would only take about 2 months to close most of the gap and she was right. It's not for everyone for sure but it was good for me so far.
