I have 2 supernumerary premolar teeth. It needs to be taken out for my braces. Is it painful?

My orthodontist says i need to take out 4 teeth and 2 supernumerary premolar teeth before he can apply the braces on my teeth. I was wondering is it painful taking out supernumerary premolar teeth ? Can someone give me some information regarding the extraction of supernumerary premolar teeth? And is it worth getting it extracted for braces?

supernumerary teeth? what do you mean. It means extra teeth. You need to take them out with 4 premolars, to push your front teeth inside.Unless you remove them you cannot push them in.
Reply:Without anaestesia? Hell yes...





With a jaw full of Novacaine? No, although the pulling process is annoying...The tugging can be easily felt. When properly numb, it hurts no more than any other tooth.





As for the worth it...that is up to you, although misaligned teeth can cause significant problems later in life, and even people to react badly if/when you smile. They can also cause problems with speech and eating.
Reply:I had four premolars taken out today. The oral surgeon used local anesthesia, and although the needle did hurt, I hardly felt any pain when the premolars were pulled out.


As long as your mouth is completely numb, you shouldn't feel much pain. (But if you do, tell your oral surgeon at once).
