My maxilla is bang average, my
Mandible is also average. I have an impacted tooth (it’s one of those teeth above the other) and my ortho is saying I’m too old now for a palate expander (15, early puberty), I also can’t afford MSE. He’s saying there’s a 40-50% chance I’m gonna need a tooth extraction, I begged him not to and he’s saying he’s gonna try everything for me to keep my teeth. What I’m wondering is if I get 1 tooth removed how recessed will I get?
