Severe Crowding — 5 Extractions, One Remarkable Result
Severe crowding • Forwardly placed teeth • 5 premolars extracted • Fixed bracesWhat is it?
When there is severe lack of space, teeth erupt forwardly placed, rotated and crowded — pushing the lips outward and creating a protruded profile. In cases this severe, the only way to achieve a stable, functional, and aesthetic result is strategic extraction of premolars to create the space needed to align and retract everything fully.
How we treat it:
- Full records — X-rays, cephalometric analysis & study models
- Strategic extraction of 5 premolars to create space
- Fixed braces — full arch alignment & retraction
- Space closure with torque control throughout
- Retainers to maintain the final result
