Ask orthodontist: That is a decision that the orthodontist makes. It all depends on how much space you have in your jaw for all your teeth.

Wisdom teeth: Any needed extractions will be determined by your orthodontist. This is usually based on how much room is needed to correct any crowding vs how much room is available, plus whether your wisdom teeth are fully erupted and their position in the arch. For any questions about your treatment, don't hesitate to contact your dentist.
