Wisdom teeth removal

[recessedyn]

Just got an xray for my wisdom teeth. Am I cooked?

No just let them come in. Mine were impacted and they came in fine. The palette expands or smth

In adulthood you may
that bottom left teeth looks weird
but if you have to extract it due to crowding, go ahead

No don't let them come in. They will cause problems when ur older

The palate expander isn't necessary
unless your palate is like 25mm
you can just use self ligating braces. They expand palate aswell

Lower palate expanders don't exist, however self ligating braces can increase the width of the lower palate, just not the bony area [mandible], since your mandible fuses year 1 of life

My palate is 37mm, you recommend extracting and then getting damon braces?

I heard they can with something called MDSO but only like 3 people in the US do it
