A member asked:
Extraction of teeth in the middle of braces, how is this done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ortho extractions: It is done as with any other tooth and often rather simply. The area is numbed and the tooth is removed. It can be done prior to the placement of orthodontic bands, wires and brackets or during treatment.
