i am undergoing a dental treatment..just started yesterday i.e. 3rd may.. In my upper jaw, the front two teeth were problematic as they were a little high and very minutely overlapping each other..I am 21 years old. I just wanted to correct my teeth and for that the doctor here had put braces on my 5 upper teeth. I am just worried that for 2 teeth he had to put braces on 5 teeth and then he is saying that in my lower jaw too he will have to put braces..is that necessary?? is whatever he is doing is right??
Hello, thank you for consulting with Chat Doctor. Actually the upper and lower teeth are arranged in a manner that they synchronize each other while chewing or talking. So if there is some improvement done in any jaw upper or lower, it should be adjusted with the other jaw. That is why he is also doing changes in your lower teeth also. Hope it will help you.
