No: There has to be a reason for teeth moving. Perhaps gum disease with bone loss. Perhaps unstable malocclusion. Perhaps systemic problem. If 2 teeth are shifting, many other teeth may be involved. See an orthodontist, a specialist in tooth position and function, for an opinion.

Gum disease?: Since you are 19 years old, it is unlikely to be a gum disease issue. Did you have trauma to the front teeth. You need an x-ray to determine if there is bone loss or infection that is causing this.

Not clear: Who is taking out your 2 front teeth? Are they falling out by themselves or is a dentist removing them? I think you are referring to bonding of your teeth? It is not clear what you need to know?

Confused: Are you asking if orthodontic treatment for you should involve extracting four premolars to retract your anterior teeth? If so, the answer is "depends". Only your treating dentist can tell you that after an examination.
