I need an opinion. Or a few :)

#1 Post by Cissa »

My second tooth on the lower left side is halfway stuck behind the first tooth. Just yesterday I had a spring placed on the two surrounding teeth to spread them out and make room for it...but for the fourth time. Every time they use the spring, they remove it at the next adjustment and hook the tooth to the arch wire to pull it foward, and it never goes. Obviously, after 4 tries you would think to try something else.

Are there any other options available to do this? Is it possible that I need a tooth pulled on my lower arch this late into treatment?
