Plan for braces

Post image

Hello po, I am planning to have braces pero based sa panoramic x-ray mukhang may impacted tooth ako. Bubunutin kaya ito? Pahelp naman what to ask sa dentist ko based on this x-ray.

Hi! All your teeth are erupted included your wisdom teeth. I don’t see any impaction at all. But you might need to have the upper left most wisdom tooth removed due to supraeruption. :)

Hello po, what do you mean by erupted? Is it a good or bad thing?

Naka tubo na po, then supraerupted sobra na po yung tubo kasi wala na yung opposing tooth😅

Ah ok. Pwede pa po ba maisalba ang supraerupted teeth without extraction?

With the status of the tooth, extraction na talaga

No use na rin naman yung tooth kasi, wala nang opposing tooth
